memcpy is not the same thing as __copy_user - the hint is in the
__user cast..

It should by copy_from_user(), I think, and this is all just somehow
broken to not check the return code.

Why are you trying to make a HW driver compile on UML? Is there any
way to even use a driver like this in a UML environment?
