This description is not good, will redescribe it in next version.

Here I describe the reasons for this:

Patch 3/7 in patchset[1] introduce copy_mc_to_user() in 
include/linux/uaccess.h and the prototype is:

     static inline unsigned long __must_check
     copy_mc_to_user(void *dst, const void *src, size_t cnt)

The prototype in x86 is:

     unsigned long __must_check
     copy_mc_to_user(void *to, const void *from, unsigned len);

This two are a little different, so I added the follow code to x86 to
avoid prototype conflict compile error.

     #define copy_mc_to_user copy_mc_to_user

In addition, I think this #define should be added here.

Thanks.
