After further review ...

The tweaks required for padding aren't as clean as all that, and memset()
isn't going to work for __user memory. I'm having trouble coming up with a
way to deal with the padding that doesn't require either allocation or a
third copy_to_user(). The inclusion of padding makes the kzalloc() and
single copy_to_user() pretty attractive.
