Thanks for testing!

Elizabeth, can you turn this into a proper patch with
"Suggested-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>"? I assume
you'll want to make some slight changes to ensure it's
both readable and correct, but apparently calculating
the size in bytes and do both the range checking and
the copy based on that is what makes gcc see the limit
correctly.
