[added to the 4.1 stable tree] ppc32: fix copy_from_user()

["Levin, Alexander" <alexander.levin@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

From: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 4.1 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

[ Upstream commit 224264657b8b228f949b42346e09ed8c90136a8e ]

should clear on access_ok() failures.  Also remove the useless
range truncation logics.
