s390/maccess: fix semantics of memcpy_real() and its callers
There is a confusion with regard to the source address of
memcpy_real() and calling functions. While the declared
type for a source assumes a virtual address, in fact it
always called with physical address of the source.
This confusion led to bugs in copy_oldmem_kernel() and
copy_oldmem_user() functions, where __pa() macro applied
mistakenly to physical addresses. It does not lead to a
real issue, since virtual and physical addresses are
currently the same.
Fix both the bugs and memcpy_real() prototype by making
type of source address consistent to the function name
and the way it actually used.
