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.

tcp_zerocopy_receive() uses provided user pointers for vma lookups, which
can only by done with untagged pointers.

Untag user pointers in this function.
