This had me thorougly confused for a while ;) The __user tag here should
apply to grouplist, not to info.


+static int groups16_to_user(old_gid_t __user *grouplist,
+ struct group_info *info)
+{
+ int i;
+ old_gid_t group;
+
+ if (info->ngroups > TASK_SIZE/sizeof(group))
+ return -EFAULT;
+ if (!access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE, grouplist, info->ngroups * sizeof(group)))
+ return -EFAULT;

Why are many functions playing with TASK_SIZE?

rant. We have soooo many syscalls declared in .c files. We had a bug due
to this a while back. Problem is, we have no anointed header in which to
place them. include/linux/syscalls.h would suit. And unistd.h for
arch-specific syscalls. But that's not appropriate to this patch.
