[PATCH v6 02/13] iov_iter: Be consistent about the __user tag on copy_mc_to_user()

From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
Date: 2023-09-22 12:03:36
Also in: linux-block, linux-fsdevel, linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen

copy_mc_to_user() has the destination marked __user on powerpc, but not on
x86; the latter results in a sparse warning in lib/iov_iter.c.

Fix this by applying the tag on x86 too.

Fixes: ec6347bb4339 ("x86, powerpc: Rename memcpy_mcsafe() to copy_mc_to_{user, kernel}()")
