Subject: metag/usercopy: Drop unused macros
From: James Hogan <james.hogan@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit ef62a2d81f73d9cddef14bc3d9097a57010d551c upstream.
Metag's lib/usercopy.c has a bunch of copy_from_user macros for larger
copies between 5 and 16 bytes which are completely unused. Before fixing
zeroing lets drop these macros so there is less to fix.
