Returning a 'bool' was very unpopular. Doubly so because the
code was just wrong (returning zero for true, one for false;
great for shell programming, not so good for C).
Change return type to "int". Keep zero as the success indicator
because it matches other similar code and people may be more
comfortable writing:
if (memcpy_mcsafe(to, from, count)) {
printk("Sad panda, copy failed\n");
...
}
Make the failure return value -EFAULT for now.
