The ICMP filters for IPv4 and IPv6 raw sockets need to be copied to/from
userspace. In support of usercopy hardening, this patch defines a region
in the struct proto slab cache in which userspace copy operations are
allowed.

example usage trace:

    net/ipv4/raw.c:
        raw_seticmpfilter(...):
            ...
            copy_from_user(&raw_sk(sk)->filter, ..., optlen)

        raw_geticmpfilter(...):
            ...
            copy_to_user(..., &raw_sk(sk)->filter, len)

    net/ipv6/raw.c:
        rawv6_seticmpfilter(...):
            ...
            copy_from_user(&raw6_sk(sk)->filter, ..., optlen)

        rawv6_geticmpfilter(...):
            ...
            copy_to_user(..., &raw6_sk(sk)->filter, len)

This region is known as the slab cache's usercopy region. Slab caches can
now check that each copy operation involving cache-managed memory falls
entirely within the slab's usercopy region.

This patch is modified from Brad Spengler/PaX Team's PAX_USERCOPY
whitelisting code in the last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on my
understanding of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code are
mine and don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code.
