[PATCH v7 2/6] uaccess: Add non-pagefault user-space read functions

[Masami Hiramatsu]

Add probe_user_read(), strncpy_from_unsafe_user() and
strnlen_unsafe_user() which allows caller to access user-space
in IRQ context.

Current probe_kernel_read() and strncpy_from_unsafe() are
not available for user-space memory, because it sets
KERNEL_DS while accessing data. On some arch, user address
space and kernel address space can be co-exist, but others
can not. In that case, setting KERNEL_DS means given
address is treated as a kernel address space.
Also strnlen_user() is only available from user context since
it can sleep if pagefault is enabled.

To access user-space memory without pagefault, we need
these new functions which sets USER_DS while accessing
the data.

  Changes in v6:
   - Remove user_access_ok()
  Changes in v5:
   - Simplify probe_user_read() (Thanks, Peter!)
   - Add strnlen_unsafe_user()
  Changes in v3:
   - Use user_access_ok() for probe_user_read().
  Changes in v2:
   - Simplify strncpy_from_unsafe_user() using strncpy_from_user()
     according to Linus's suggestion.
   - Simplify probe_user_read() not using intermediate function.
