[PATCH 1/2] uvc_v4l2: Use memdup_user() rather than duplicating its implementation

[SF Markus Elfring]

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Fri, 19 Aug 2016 10:50:05 +0200

Reuse existing functionality from memdup_user() instead of keeping
duplicate source code.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
