[PATCH] perf: Fix arch_perf_out_copy_user default implementation

Subject: perf: Fix arch_perf_out_copy_user default implementation

I noticed that the arch_perf_output_copy_user default of
__copy_from_user_inatomic has different return semantics that all other
memcpy functions we use -- notably also copy_from_user_nmi() for x86.

So provide a compatible default function.

Also change all the memcpy functions to use unsigned long.
