Replace calls to kmalloc followed by a memcpy with a direct call to
kmemdup.
The Coccinelle semantic patch used to make this change is as follows:
@@
expression from,to,size,flag;
statement S;
@@
- to = \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\)(size,flag);
+ to = kmemdup(from,size,flag);
if (to==NULL || ...) S
- memcpy(to, from, size);
