oprofile, s390: Fix uninitialized memory access when writing to oprofilefs
If oprofilefs_ulong_from_user() is called with count equals zero, *val remains unchanged. Depending on the implementation it might be uninitialized. Fixing users of oprofilefs_ulong_ from_user(). We missed these s390 changes with: 913050b oprofile: Fix uninitialized memory access when writing to writing to oprofilefs Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 3.3+ Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>
