[Nouveau] [PATCH v2] drm/nouveau/gem: Use vmemdup_user() rather than duplicating its implementation

[Markus Elfring]

From: Markus Elfring <elfring at users.sourceforge.net>
Date: Fri, 14 Aug 2020 08:56:54 +0200

* Reuse existing functionality from vmemdup_user() instead of keeping
  duplicate source code.

  Generated by: scripts/coccinelle/api/memdup_user.cocci

* See also:
  [PATCH] drm/nouveau/gem: fix err_cast.cocci warnings

* Simplify this function implementation further by omitting the local
  variable “mem” and extra error handling here.
