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. strncpy_from_user and strnlen_user accept user addresses as arguments, and do not go through the same path as copy_from_user and others, so here we need to handle the case of tagged user addresses separately. Untag user pointers passed to these functions. Note, that this patch only temporarily untags the pointers to perform validity checks, but then uses them as is to perform user memory accesses.
