[PATCH] drm/i915: Use memdup_user() instead of kmalloc() and copy_from_user()

Use memdup_user() instead of kmalloc() followed by copy_from_user() to
simplify set_context_image().

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

  WARNING opportunity for memdup_user
