    rseq: Use get_user/put_user rather than __get_user/__put_user · 8f281770
    Mathieu Desnoyers authored
    __get_user()/__put_user() is used to read values for address ranges that
    were already checked with access_ok() on rseq registration.
    
    It has been recognized that __get_user/__put_user are optimizing the
    wrong thing. Replace them by get_user/put_user across rseq instead.
    
    If those end up showing up in benchmarks, the proper approach would be to
    use user_access_begin() / unsafe_{get,put}_user() / user_access_end()
    anyway.
