[ Upstream commit 313ebe47d75558511aa1237b6e35c663b5c0ec6f ] Currently, user array duplications are sometimes done without an overflow check. Sometimes the checks are done manually; sometimes the array size is calculated with array_size() and sometimes by calculating n * size directly in code. Introduce wrappers for arrays for memdup_user() and vmemdup_user() to provide a standardized and safe way for duplicating user arrays. This is both for new code as well as replacing usage of (v)memdup_user() in existing code that uses, e.g., n * size to calculate array sizes.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
