Thinking some more, let's first try to change USER_DS to the dynamic
TASK_SIZE and add a generic set_fs(USER_DS) call in setup_new_exec() as
below:

Cc'ing Al Viro for his opinion here.

In summary: access_ok() behaves differently on native 32-bit kernels vs
64-bit + compat applications because for the latter USER_DS is always
set to the maximum 64-bit TASK_SIZE (x86 and powerpc seem to do
something similar). Changing USER_DS alone in the arch code does not
help since the set_fs(USER_DS) in flush_old_exec() is called prior to
COMPAT_SET_PERSONALITY().

(it's not a serious bug, just some LTP tests failing when they test an
address range going beyond the 4GB limit)

Thanks.
