[PATCH] staging: lib: Use memcpy_to/from_page()

[Sumitra Sharma]

Deprecate kmap() in favor of kmap_local_page() due to high
cost, restricted mapping space, the overhead of a global lock
for synchronization, and making the process sleep in the
absence of free slots.

kmap_local_page() offers thread-local and CPU-local mappings,
take pagefaults in a local kmap region and preserves preemption
by saving the mappings of outgoing task and restoring those of
the incoming one during a context switch.

It is faster than kmap(), and in functions "dmirror_do_read" and
"dmirror_do_write" the mappings are kept local to the thread.

Therefore, replace kmap/mem*()/kunmap pattern with
memcpy_to/from_page() and remove the unused variable "tmp".
