uprobes: Introduce copy_to_page()
Extract the kmap_atomic/memcpy/kunmap_atomic code from xol_get_insn_slot() into the new simple helper, copy_to_page(). It will have more users soon. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Acked-by: Anton Arapov <anton@redhat.com> Acked-by: Srikar Dronamraju <srikar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
