[patch 15/15] proc/vmcore: fix clearing user buffer by properly using clear_user()

Subject: proc/vmcore: fix clearing user buffer by properly using clear_user()

To clear a user buffer we cannot simply use memset, we have to use
clear_user().  With a virtio-mem device that registers a vmcore_cb and has
some logically unplugged memory inside an added Linux memory block, I can
easily trigger a BUG by copying the vmcore via "cp":

Some x86-64 CPUs have a CPU feature called "Supervisor Mode Access
Prevention (SMAP)", which is used to detect wrong access from the kernel
to user buffers like this: SMAP triggers a permissions violation on wrong
access.  In the x86-64 variant of clear_user(), SMAP is properly handled
via clac()+stac().

To fix, properly use clear_user() when we're dealing with a user buffer.
