Hi Xu Kuohai,

len is an unsigned 32-bit entity, but the return type of this function
is an unsigned value (ssize_t). So in theory, if len is very large,
a negative error value error will be returned.

Similarly for the handling of nattr in lsm_get_self_attr in
lsm_syscalls.c in a subsequent patch.
