Fix errors in unlock_user() calls:
- unlock_user() with len=1 instead of len=written
- unlock_user() with len=1 instead of len=0
- unlock_user() with len=0 instead of len=1

This fixes the writeback -- old code had 0 which meant
no flush at all, so getsockopt results were silently
lost under CONFIG_DEBUG_REMAP.
Minor observation: getsockopt returns actual bytes in
lv, so using lv rather than len would be more precise.
That said, the swap loop above also uses len, so this
is consistent with the existing code.

Right. This function only reads from target, so
copy=0 (no writeback) is the correct semantic.
