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 Signed-off-by: Thorsten Blum <thorsten.blum@toblux.com> Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: Srinivas Kandagatla <srinivas.kandagatla@linaro.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240705075900.424100-2-srinivas.kandagatla@linaro.org Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
