Alban Crequy 9648d760ed maccess: Fix writing offset in case of fault in strncpy_from_kernel_nofault() ...

commit 8678ea06852cd1f819b870c773d43df888d15d46 upstream.

If a page fault occurs while copying the first byte, this function resets one
byte before dst.
As a consequence, an address could be modified and leaded to kernel crashes if
case the modified address was accessed later.
