metag/usercopy: Fix alignment error checking
commit 2257211942bbbf6c798ab70b487d7e62f7835a1a upstream. Fix the error checking of the alignment adjustment code in raw_copy_from_user(), which mistakenly considers it safe to skip the error check when aligning the source buffer on a 2 or 4 byte boundary. If the destination buffer was unaligned it may have started to copy using byte or word accesses, which could well be at the start of a new (valid) source page. This would result in it appearing to have copied 1 or 2 bytes at the end of the first (invalid) page rather than none at all.
