[PATCH] mmaper_kern.c fixes [buffer overruns]

[Al Viro]

	* copy_from_user() can fail; ->write() must check its return
value.
	* severe buffer overruns both in ->read() and ->write() - lseek
to the end (i.e. to mmapper_size) and
	if(count + *ppos > mmapper_size)
		count = count + *ppos - mmapper_size;
will do absolutely nothing.  Then it will call
	copy_to_user(buf,&v_buf[*ppos],count);
with obvious results (similar for ->write()).
	Fixed by turning read to simple_read_from_buffer() and by doing
normal limiting of count in ->write().
	* gratitious lock_kernel() in ->mmap() - it's useless there.
	* lots of gratitious includes.
