If I'm reading correctly, this second fixup is wrong. It should read;

    kasan_check_read(from, n);
    check_object_size(from, n, true);
    return __arch_copy_to_user(to, from, n);

(i.e. fix double space between "return" and "__arch_copy..." in both
chunks and add check_object_size() calls after the kasan calls in both
chunks.
