I would prefer the arguments in the same order as ib_copy_from_udata()

int ib_umem_copy_from(void *dst,
                      struct ib_umem *umem, size_t umem_offset,
                      size_t length);

As the function return a "int", no more than INT_MAX bytes (likely 2^31
- 1) can be copied. Perhaps changing the return type to to ssize_t would
be better (and a check to enfore ssize_t maximum value). Or change the
function could return 0 in case of success or a error code, just like
ib_copy_from_udata().
