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

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

Same as previously reported in another patch, GFP_NOFS has not the same meaning than GPF_KERNEL.
So your proposed clean-up is not 100% equivalent.

Are your sure that GPF_KERNEL instead of GFP_NOFS is right in this code?

Maybe, the coccinelle check should be tweak to only spot "kzalloc(..., GFP_KERNEL)" allocation?
