strncpy_from_user_nofault() should return the length of the copied string
including the trailing NUL, but if the argument unsafe_addr points to an
empty string ({'\0'}), the return value is 0.
This happens as strncpy_from_user() copies terminal symbol into dst and
returns 0 (as expected), but strncpy_from_user_nofault does not modify ret
as it is not equal to count and not greater than 0, so 0 is returned,
which contradicts the contract.

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 reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
