Hi all,
I'm seeing an interesting hang when trinity is trying to load a large module,
where
the size passed by userspace is larger than the amount of memory actually
allocated
in userspace and passed in the 'from' parameter:

This is the result of getting copy_user_handle_tail to zero out a large block of
kernel memory very inefficiently:
for (c = 0, zero_len = len; zerorest && zero_len; --zero_len)
if (__put_user_nocheck(c, to++, sizeof(char)))
break;
Thanks,
Sasha
