From: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@xxxxxx> commit ab10ae1c3bef56c29bac61e1201c752221b87b41 upstream. The range passed to user_access_begin() by strncpy_from_user() and strnlen_user() starts at 'src' and goes up to the limit of userspace although reads will be limited by the 'count' param. On 32 bits powerpc (book3s/32) access has to be granted for each 256Mbytes segment and the cost increases with the number of segments to unlock. Limit the range with 'count' param.
