Subject: [PATCH] usercopy: Adjust tests to deal with SMAP/PAN

Under SMAP/PAN/etc, we cannot write directly to userspace memory, so
this rearranges the test bytes to get written through copy_to_user().
Additionally fixes a small memory leak on user memory allocation failure,
and drops the bad copy_from_user() test that would trigger a memcpy()
against userspace on failure.
