documentation flaw



Hi,

The online document at:
	http://www.kernelnewbies.org/documents/copy_user/
contains a flaw.
It states:
	"calculating the actual number of copied bytes (I think :-)"
While actually it calculates the amount of memory still to be copied.
It's a common made mistake amongst kernel programmers recently rectified 
in the kernel sources but still wrong on the kernelnewbies site.
Since this site is 'the mother' site for all the future kernel developers 
it should be corrected.

Greetz,
Frank.
