[PATCH v4 2/4] KEYS: Remove __user annotation from rxrpc_read()

As the keyctl_read_key() has been modified to use a temporary kernel
buffer to read out the key data instead of passing in the user-supplied
buffer directly, there is no need to use the __user annotation for
rxrpc_read(). In addition,

 1) The put_user() call is replaced by a direct copy.
 2) The copy_to_user() call is replaced by memcpy().
 3) All the fault handling code is removed.

Compiling on a x86-64 system, the size of the rxrpc_read() function is
reduced from 3795 bytes to 2384 bytes with this patch.
