dlm: Use kmemdup instead of kmalloc and memcpy

Replace calls to kmalloc followed by a memcpy with a direct call to
kmemdup.

The Coccinelle semantic patch used to make this change is as follows:
@@
expression from,to,size,flag;
statement S;
@@

-  to = \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\)(size,flag);
+  to = kmemdup(from,size,flag);
   if (to==NULL || ...) S
-  memcpy(to, from, size);
