Al Viro 6bcdd2972b powerpc/ptrace: Use copy_{from, to}_user() rather than open-coding
In PPC_PTRACE_GETHWDBGINFO and PPC_PTRACE_SETHWDEBUG we do an
access_ok() check and then __copy_{from,to}_user().

Instead we should just use copy_{from,to}_user() which does all that
for us and is less error prone.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
