[PATCH] staging: spectra: Use memdup_user

[PATCH] staging: spectra: Use memdup_user

[Thomas Meyer]

From: Thomas Meyer <thomas@m3y3r.de>

 Use kmemdup_user rather than duplicating its implementation
 This is a little bit restricted to reduce false positives

 The semantic patch that makes this output is available
 in scripts/coccinelle/api/memdup_user.cocci.
