[PATCH 1/2] mmc-block: Use memdup_user() rather than duplicating its implementation

From: SF Markus Elfring
Date: Fri Aug 19 2016 - 17:11:06 EST

* Reuse existing functionality from memdup_user() instead of keeping
duplicate source code.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

* Delete the integer variable "err" then because the pointer
variable "idata" should be sufficient to handle return values alone
in this function.
