    Enabling DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS causes the following
    warning:
    
    In file included from arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess.h:573,
                     from include/net/checksum.h:25,
                     from include/linux/skbuff.h:28,
                     from drivers/net/wireless/iwlegacy/iwl-4965-rs.c:28:

        inlined from 'iwl4965_rs_sta_dbgfs_scale_table_write' at
        drivers/net/wireless/iwlegacy/iwl-4965-rs.c:2616:
    arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_64.h:65:
    warning: call to 'copy_from_user_overflow' declared with
    attribute warning: copy_from_user() buffer size is not provably
    correct
    
    presumably due to buf_size being signed causing GCC to fail to
    see that buf_size can't become negative.
