+ * __copy_to_user_inatomic: - Copy a block of data into user space, with less checking.
+ * @to:   Destination address, in user space.
+ * @from: Source address, in kernel space.
+ * @n:    Number of bytes to copy.
+ *
+ * Context: User context only.
+ *
+ * Copy data from kernel space to user space.  Caller must check
+ * the specified block with access_ok() before calling this function.
+ * The caller should also make sure he pins the user space address
+ * so that the we don't result in page fault and sleep.
+ *
  * Here we special-case 1, 2 and 4-byte copy_*_user invocations.  On a fault
  * we return the initial request size (1, 2 or 4), as copy_*_user should do.
  * If a store crosses a page boundary and gets a fault, the x86 will not write
