The problem is that type promotion with ternary operations is quite complicated. "ret" is an int. "copied" is a u32. And the snoop_file_read() function returns long. What happens is that "ret" is cast to u32 and becomes positive then it's cast to long and it's still positive. Fix this by removing the ternary so that "ret" is type promoted directly to long.
