x86/asm/memcpy_mcsafe: Return bytes remaining
Machine check safe memory copies are currently deployed in the pmem
driver whenever reading from persistent memory media, so that -EIO is
returned rather than triggering a kernel panic. While this protects most
pmem accesses, it is not complete in the filesystem-dax case. When
filesystem-dax is enabled reads may bypass the block layer and the
driver via dax_iomap_actor() and its usage of copy_to_iter().
In preparation for creating a copy_to_iter() variant that can handle
machine checks, teach memcpy_mcsafe() to return the number of bytes
remaining rather than -EFAULT when an exception occurs.
