So it seems to be a combination of GCC 4.9 and ...

That ^, which specifically causes PPC_KUAP=n.

When PPC_KUAP=y allow_user_access() inlines an isync and mtspr, both of
which contain a memory clobber, and that seems to hide the bug.

I think for now we just have to stop using asm goto for put_user() on
GCC 4.9.

I'll send a patch for that.

cheers
