Staging: bcm: Use memdup_user rather than duplicating its implementation
This is a little bit restricted to reduce false positives The semantic patch that makes this change is available in scripts/coccinelle/api/memdup_user.cocci. More information about semantic patching is available at http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/ Signed-off-by: Thomas Meyer <thomas@m3y3r.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
