copy_from_user (and a few other similar functions) are used to copy data from user memory into the kernel memory or vice versa. Since a user can provided a tagged pointer to one of the syscalls that use copy_from_user, we need to correctly handle such pointers.
Do this by untagging user pointers in access_ok and in __uaccess_mask_ptr, before performing access validity checks.
Note, that this patch only temporarily untags the pointers to perform the checks, but then passes them as is into the kernel internals.
