vfs/proc/kcore, x86/mm/kcore: Fix SMAP fault when dumping vsyscall user page
[ Upstream commit 595dd46ebfc10be041a365d0a3fa99df50b6ba73 ]
Commit:
df04abfd181a ("fs/proc/kcore.c: Add bounce buffer for ktext data")
... introduced a bounce buffer to work around CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY=y.
However, accessing the vsyscall user page will cause an SMAP fault.
Replace memcpy() with copy_from_user() to fix this bug works, but adding
a common way to handle this sort of user page may be useful for future.
Currently, only vsyscall page requires KCORE_USER.
