Subject[PATCH] asm-generic: uaccess: fix up local access_ok() usage
Date
There's no reason that I can see to use the short __access_ok() form
directly when the access_ok() is clearer in intent and for more people,
expands to the same C code (i.e. always specify the first field -- access
type). Not all no-mmu systems lack memory protection, so the read/write
could feasibly be checked.

Also, the strnlen_user() function was missing a access_ok() check on the
pointer given. We've had cases on Blackfin systems where test cases
caused kernel crashes here because userspace passed up a NULL/-1 pointer
and the kernel gladly attempted to run strlen() on it.
