Subject: [for-next][PATCH 13/18] tracing/uprobes: Fix to return -EFAULT if copy_from_user failed

From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@...nel.org>

Fix probe_mem_read() to return -EFAULT if copy_from_user()
failed. The copy_from_user() returns remaining bytes
when it failed, but probe_mem_read() caller expects it
returns error code like as probe_kernel_read().
