[PATCH 3/4] ipc: simplify message copying

[Stanislav Kinsbursky]

This patch removed redundant and confusing fill_copy(). It also adds
copy_msg() check for error. In this case exit from the function have to be
done instead of break, because further code interprets any error as EAGAIN.

It also defines copy_msg() for the case when CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE is
disabled.
