14 * copy_from_user_nmi - NMI safe copy from user
15 * @to: Pointer to the destination buffer
16 * @from: Pointer to a user space address of the current task
17 * @n: Number of bytes to copy
18 *
19 * Returns: The number of not copied bytes. 0 is success, i.e. all bytes copied
20 *
21 * Contrary to other copy_from_user() variants this function can be called
22 * from NMI context. Despite the name it is not restricted to be called
23 * from NMI context. It is safe to be called from any other context as
24 * well. It disables pagefaults across the copy which means a fault will
25 * abort the copy.
26 *
27 * For NMI context invocations this relies on the nested NMI work to allow
28 * atomic faults from the NMI path; the nested NMI paths are careful to
29 * preserve CR2.
