s390/maccess: fix semantics of memcpy_real() and its callers
There is a confusion with regard to the source address of memcpy_real() and calling functions. While the declared type for a source assumes a virtual address, in fact it always called with physical address of the source. This confusion led to bugs in copy_oldmem_kernel() and copy_oldmem_user() functions, where __pa() macro applied mistakenly to physical addresses. It does not lead to a real issue, since virtual and physical addresses are currently the same. Fix both the bugs and memcpy_real() prototype by making type of source address consistent to the function name and the way it actually used.
