net: Fix wrong interpretation of some copy_to_user() results.

Browse source 
I found some places, that erroneously return the value obtained from
the copy_to_user() call: if some amount of bytes were not able to get
to the user (this is what this one returns) the proper behavior is to
return the -EFAULT error, not that number itself.
