i2c-dev: Use memdup_user

Use memdup_user when user data is immediately copied into the allocated
region.  Note that in the second case, the ++i is no longer necessary, as
the last value is already freed if needed by the call to memdup_user.

The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:

expression from,to,size,flag;
position p;
identifier l1,l2;

-  to = \(kmalloc@p\|kzalloc@p\)(size,flag);
+  to = memdup_user(from,size);
   if (
-      to==NULL
+      IS_ERR(to)
                 || ...) {
   <+... when != goto l1;

   }
-  if (copy_from_user(to, from, size) != 0) {
-    <+... when != goto l2;
-    -EFAULT
