2.6.32-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

commit 325fda71d0badc1073dc59f12a948f24ff05796a

[ cebbert(a)redhat.com : backport to 2.6.32 ]

devmem: check vmalloc address on kmem read/write

Otherwise vmalloc_to_page() will BUG().

This also makes the kmem read/write implementation aligned with mem(4):
"References to nonexistent locations cause errors to be returned." Here we
return -ENXIO (inspired by Hugh) if no bytes have been transfered to/from
user space, otherwise return partial read/write results.
