rS333639: vmmdev: return EFAULT when trying to read beyond VM system memory max address

Summary

Currently, when using dd(1) to take a VM memory image, the capture never ends,
reading zeroes when it's beyond VM system memory max address.
Return EFAULT when trying to read beyond VM system memory max address.
With the patch, I'm able to take a memory image from a windows guest with dd(1)
and analyse it with tools like volatility or rekall.
