3.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Nicolas Boichat <drinkcat@xxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 9586495dc3011a80602329094e746dbce16cb1f1 upstream. This reverts one hunk of commit ef44a1ec6eee ("ALSA: sound/core: use memdup_user()"), which replaced a number of kmalloc followed by memcpy with memdup calls. In this case, we are copying from a struct snd_seq_port_info32 to a struct snd_seq_port_info, but the latter is 4 bytes longer than the 32-bit version, so we need to separate kmalloc and copy calls.
