A fault in a user provided buffer may lead anywhere, and lockdep warns
that we have a potential deadlock between the mm->mmap_sem and the
kernfs file mutex:

Highly unlikely though this scenario is, we can avoid the issue entirely
by moving the copy operation from out under the mutex by always allocating
a temporary buffer for the operation (rather than reuse the preallocated
buf which requires the mutex for serialisation).

Ville, care to give this a spin and a sanity check?
