asm-generic: uaccess: Allow arches to over-ride __{get,put}_user_fn()
As of now these default to calling the arch provided __copy_{to,from}_user() routines which being general purpose (w.r.t buffer alignment and lengths) would lead to alignment checks in generated code (for arches which don't support unaligned load/stores). Given that in this case we already know that data involved is "unit" sized and aligned, using the vanilla copy backend is a bit wasteful. This change thus allows arches to over-ride the aforementioned routines. Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
