HID: picolcd: Avoid compile warning/error triggered by copy_from_user()
With CONFIG_DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS=y compilation of PicoLCD driver fails on copy_from_user(), without it a warning is generated: CC [M] drivers/hid/hid-picolcd.o In file included from /usr/src/linux-2.6/arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess.h:571, from /usr/src/linux-2.6/arch/x86/include/asm/sections.h:5, from /usr/src/linux-2.6/arch/x86/include/asm/hw_irq.h:26, from /usr/src/linux-2.6/include/linux/irq.h:359, from /usr/src/linux-2.6/arch/x86/include/asm/hardirq.h:5, from /usr/src/linux-2.6/include/linux/hardirq.h:7, from /usr/src/linux-2.6/include/linux/interrupt.h:12, from /usr/src/linux-2.6/include/linux/usb.h:15, from /usr/src/linux-2.6/drivers/hid/hid-picolcd.c:25: In function 'copy_from_user', inlined from 'picolcd_debug_eeprom_write' at drivers/hid/hid-picolcd.c:1592: arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_32.h:212: error: call to 'copy_from_user_overflow' declared with attribute error: copy_from_user() buffer size is not provably correct gcc-4.4.5 is not able to track size calculation when it is stored into a variable, thus tell copy_from_user() maximum size via min(*max-size*, *effective-size*) explicitly and inline how much to copy at most.
