[PATCH] stm class: Use memdup_user_nul() to simplify stm_char_policy_set_ioctl()

[Christophe JAILLET]

Instead of hand-writing kzalloc(size+1) + copy_from_user(size), use
memdup_user_nul() that does the same with a few less lines of code.

This also saves a useless zeroing of the allocated memory.
