[RFC][PATCHSET] x86 uaccess cleanups

[Al Viro]

        Beginning of uaccess series; there's more already linearized, but
I'll be posting that separately.  This stuff lives in
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs.git #next.uaccess-2
Individual patches will be in followups.  Please, review.  It's 5.6-rc1-based;
diffstat is:

part 1: getting rid of constant size cases in raw_copy_{to,from}_user() (x86)

        raw_copy_{to,from}_user() recognizes some small constant sizes
and turns those into a sequence of __get_user()/__put_user().  Very few
call chains these days hit those - most are not getting the constant
sizes or get the size not among the recognized sets.  And out of the
few that do hit those cases, not all are hot enough to bother.
So let's convert those that are to explicit __get_user()/__put_user()
and drop that logics in raw_copy_{to,from}_user().  That gets rid of
quite a bit of complexity in there.
        Note: I'm not sure about one chain - vhost_scsi_do_evt_work()
copyout of 16byte struct virtio_scsi_event; if we see slowdowns there,
we probably ought to switch it to unsafe_put_user().

1/22	x86 user stack frame reads: switch to explicit __get_user()
2/22	x86 kvm page table walks: switch to explicit __get_user()
3/22	x86: switch sigframe sigset handling to explict __get_user()/__put_user()
4/22	x86: get rid of small constant size cases in raw_copy_{to,from}_user()

part 2: getting rid of get_user_ex/put_user_ex mess.

        copyin side is easy - we are on shallow stack in all cases,
and we can just do a bulk copyin instead.  copyout is more interesting.
In principle, it's all straightforward - those put_user_{try,catch}
blocks turn into user_access_{begin,end}() ones, with unsafe_put_user()
used instead of put_user_ex().  It does take some massage, though.
