Jason Wessel 6144a85a0e maccess,probe_kernel: Allow arch specific override probe_kernel_(read|write)
Some archs such as blackfin, would like to have an arch specific
probe_kernel_read() and probe_kernel_write() implementation which can
fall back to the generic implementation if no special operations are
needed.

Hiroshi Shimamoto fb71e45338 uaccess: fix parameters inversion for __copy_from_user_inatomic()
The following patch changes to use __copy_from_user_inatomic(),
but the passing parameters incorrect:

Andrew Morton 20aa7b21b1 [PATCH] probe_kernel_address() needs to do set_fs()
probe_kernel_address() purports to be generic, only it forgot to select
KERNEL_DS, so it presently won't work right on all architectures.

Peter Zijlstra a866374aec [PATCH] mm: pagefault_{disable,enable}()
Introduce pagefault_{disable,enable}() and use these where previously we did
manual preempt increments/decrements to make the pagefault handler do the
atomic thing.

Currently they still rely on the increased preempt count, but do not rely on
the disabled preemption, this might go away in the future.

(NOTE: the extra barrier() in pagefault_disable might fix some holes on
       machines which have too many registers for their own good)
