Linus Torvalds 5e857ce6ea Merge branch 'hch' (maccess patches from Christoph Hellwig)
Merge non-faulting memory access cleanups from Christoph Hellwig:
 "Andrew and I decided to drop the patches implementing your suggested
  rename of the probe_kernel_* and probe_user_* helpers from -mm as
  there were way to many conflicts.

  After -rc1 might be a good time for this as all the conflicts are
  resolved now"

This also adds a type safety checking patch on top of the renaming
series to make the subtle behavioral difference between 'get_user()' and
'get_kernel_nofault()' less potentially dangerous and surprising.

* emailed patches from Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>:
  maccess: make get_kernel_nofault() check for minimal type compatibility
  maccess: rename probe_kernel_address to get_kernel_nofault
  maccess: rename probe_user_{read,write} to copy_{from,to}_user_nofault
  maccess: rename probe_kernel_{read,write} to copy_{from,to}_kernel_nofault
