The COMEDI_CMD and COMEDI_CMDTEST ioctl functions both copy the chanlist
passed by the user from __user memory space to kernel memory space. They
then do some sanity checking of the chanlist with comedi_check_chanlist()
before the subdevice (*do_cmdtest) and (*do_cmd) operations are called.

Introduce a helper function to handle the memdup_user() and the sanity
checking.

Also, remove the unnecessary dev_dbg() when the memdup_user() or
comedi_check_chanlist() fail.
