introduce memory_read_from_buffer()

Browse Source 
This patch introduces memory_read_from_buffer().

The only difference between memory_read_from_buffer() and
simple_read_from_buffer() is which address space the function copies to.

simple_read_from_buffer copies to user space memory.
memory_read_from_buffer copies to normal memory.
