Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH v3 04/24] xen: guestcopy: Provide an helper to safely copy string from guest

Flask code already provides an helper to copy a string from guest. In a later
patch, the new DT hypercalls will need a similar function.

To avoid code duplication, copy the flask helper (flask_copying_string) to
common code:
     - Rename into safe_copy_string_from_guest
     - Add comment to explain the extra +1
     - Return directly the buffer and use the macros provided by
     xen/err.h to return an error code if necessary.
