j.nixdorf@avm.de f6ced16ce5 net: sunrpc: interpret the return value of kstrtou32 correctly
commit 86b53fbf08 upstream.

A return value of 0 means success. This is documented in lib/kstrtox.c.

This was found by trying to mount an NFS share from a link-local IPv6
address with the interface specified by its index:

  mount("[fe80::1%1]:/srv/nfs", "/mnt", "nfs", 0, "nolock,addr=fe80::1%1")

Before this commit this failed with EINVAL and also caused the following
message in dmesg:

  [...] NFS: bad IP address specified: addr=fe80::1%1

The syscall using the same address based on the interface name instead
of its index succeeds.

Credits for this patch go to my colleague Christian Speich, who traced
the origin of this bug to this line of code.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
