In addition to the 'stac' instruction for Supervisor Mode Access Protection, an 'ifence' causes the 'access_ok' result to resolve in the pipeline before the cpu might take any speculative action on the pointer value. Since this is a major kernel interface that deals with user controlled data, the '__uaccess_begin_nospec' mechanism will prevent speculative execution past an 'access_ok' permission check. While speculative execution past 'access_ok' is not enough to lead to a kernel memory leak, it is a necessary precondition. To be clear, '__uaccess_begin_nospec' and ASM_IFENCE are not addressing any known issues with 'get_user' they are addressing a class of potential problems that could be near 'get_user' usages. In other words, these helpers are for hygiene not clinical fixes. There are no functional changes in this patch.
