Subject: [RESEND PATCH v2] misc: fastrpc: Use memdup_user()

Switching to memdup_user() overwrites the allocated memory only once,
whereas kzalloc() followed by copy_from_user() initializes the allocated
memory to zero and then immediately overwrites it.

Fixes the following Coccinelle/coccicheck warning reported by
memdup_user.cocci:

	WARNING opportunity for memdup_user

Changes in v2:
- Use u64_to_user_ptr() as suggested by Arnd Bergmann (thanks!)
- Preserve Acked-by: tag
