Re: [PATCH v2] arm64/traps: Avoid unnecessary kernel/user pointer conversion

Annotating a pointer from kernel to __user and then back again requires

this unnecessary complexity can be avoided by modifying the intermediate
user pointer to unsigned long.

This way there is no inter-changeable use of user and kernel pointers
and the code is consistent.

Applied to arm64 (for-next/misc), thanks!
