s390/uaccess: get_user() should zero on failure (again)
Commit fd2d2b19 ("s390: get_user() should zero on failure") intended to fix s390's get_user() implementation which did not zero the target operand if the read from user space faulted. Unfortunately the patch has no effect: the corresponding inline assembly specifies that the operand is only written to ("=") and the previous value is discarded. Therefore the compiler is free to and actually does omit the zero initialization. To fix this simply change the contraint modifier to "+", so the compiler cannot omit the initialization anymore.
