This patch allocates a few pages and performs an ioread8_rep() from the bus
address, which are then copied to userspace. This fixes the sparse warning:
drivers/staging/goldfish/goldfish_audio.c:136:43: warning: incorrect type in
argument 2 (different address spaces)
drivers/staging/goldfish/goldfish_audio.c:136:43: expected void const *from
drivers/staging/goldfish/goldfish_audio.c:136:43: got char [noderef]
<asn:2>*read_buffer
which was a result of performing a copy_to_user() directly from the bus address
to the userspace, which can be unsafe across some architectures.
