[PATCH] mmc/core/block: Use memdup_user() rather than duplicating its implementation

[SF Markus Elfring]

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Mon, 5 Mar 2018 11:33:21 +0100

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

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
