GCC 9.3 (but not later) incorrectly evaluates the arguments to
check_copy_size(), getting seemingly confused by the size being returned
from array_size(). Instead, perform the calculation once, which both
makes the code more readable and avoids the bug in GCC.

   In function 'check_copy_size',

     213 |    __bad_copy_to();
         |    ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

But the allocation size and the copy size are identical:

	transfer = vmalloc(array_size(sizeof(*transfer), transaction.count));
	if (!transfer)
		return -ENOMEM;

	if (unlikely(copy_from_user(transfer,
				    (void __user *)(uintptr_t)transaction.block,
				    array_size(sizeof(*transfer), transaction.count)))) {
