When user tries to replace the user-defined control TLV, the kernel
checks the change of its content via memcmp(). The problem is that
the kernel passes the return value from memcmp() as is. memcmp()
gives a non-zero negative value depending on the comparison result,
and this shall be recognized as an error code.
The patch covers that corner-case, return 1 properly for the changed
TLV.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
