commit b81296591c upstream.
Replace kmalloc() followed by copy_from_user() with memdup_user() to fix
a memory leak that occurs when copy_from_user(buff[sg_used],,) fails and
the 'cleanup1:' path does not free the memory for 'buff[sg_used]'. Using
memdup_user() avoids this by freeing the memory internally.
Since memdup_user() already allocates memory, use kzalloc() in the else
branch instead of manually zeroing 'buff[sg_used]' using memset(0).
