Subject: [PATCH 2/2] x86: Fix copy_from_user_nmi return to match copy_from_user.

copy_from_user returns the number of bytes not copied.  This change
makes copy_from_user_nmi behave the same way, instead of returning the
number of bytes that were copied, to help prevent bugs caused by this
surprising difference (and simplify callers, which mostly want to know
if the number of uncopied bytes is nonzero).
