This is ok as well. The idea with the asm-generic __copy_from_user()
implementation is to separate out the cases where you have just
a few bytes and handle them efficiently inline. If you don't want
to do that for some reason, overriding __get_user_fn works
as well. The resulting object code should be the same.
