Simplify the user copy code by using strndup_user. This means that we now do one memory allocation per operation instead of one per ioctl, but memory allocations are cheap compared to the actual file system operations. Also the error for an invalid path is now EINVAL or EFAULT instead of the previous odd and undocumented ERANGE.
