[PATCH 3/3] riscv: fix __user annotation for __copy_user()

[Luc Van Oostenryck]

__copy_user() is a function, written in assembly, used to copy
memory between kernel & user space. As such its to & from args
may both take a user pointer or a kernel pointer.

However the prototype for this function declare these two args
as 'void __user *', which is no more & no less correct than
declaring them as 'void *'. In fact theer is no possible correct
annotation for such a function.

The problem is worked around here by declaring these args as
unsigned long and casting them to the right type in each of
two callers raw_copy_{to,from}_user() as some kind of cast would
be needed anyway.

Note: another solution, maybe cleaner but slightly more complex,
      would be to declare two version of __copy_user,
      either in the asm file or via an alias, each having already
      the correct typing for raw_copy_{to,from}_user().
