KVM: SVM: no need to call access_ok() in LAUNCH_MEASURE command

Browse source

Using the access_ok() to validate the input before issuing the SEV
command does not buy us anything in this case. If userland is
giving us a garbage pointer then copy_to_user() will catch it when we try
to return the measurement.
