Series arm64: untag user pointers passed to the kernel | expand

Commit Message

Andrey Konovalov March 20, 2019, 2:51 p.m. UTC 
This patch is a part of a series that extends arm64 kernel ABI to allow to
pass tagged user pointers (with the top byte set to something else other
than 0x00) as syscall arguments.

find_active_uprobe() uses user pointers (obtained via
instruction_pointer(regs)) for vma lookups, which can only by done with
untagged pointers.

Untag user pointers in this function.
