[PATCH] KVM: SVM: no need to call access_ok() in LAUNCH_MEASURE command

[Brijesh Singh]

Using the access_ok() to validate the input before issuing the SEV
command does not buy us anything in this case. If userland is
giving us a garbage pointer then copy_to_user() will catch it when we try
to return the measurement.

We no longer need patch [1]. This patch implements Al Viro's recommendation [2]
