A new atomic modeset/pageflip ioctl being developed in DRM requires
get_user() to work for 64bit types (in addition to just put_user()).
v1: original
v2: pass correct size to check_uaccess, and better handling of narrowing
double word read with __get_user_xb() (Russell King's suggestion)
v3: fix a couple of checkpatch issues

Notes:
I'd like to wake this patch up again. It was rejected back in 2012 on
the grounds that other architectures (notably x86-32) didn't implement
this so adding for ARM risked portability problems in drivers. However
shortly after the discussion (in fact I believe that as a *result* of
that discussion) support for 64-bit get_user() was added for x86-32.
A quick review of different architectures uaccess.h shows that ARM is
in the minority (even after excluding 64-bit architectures) in not
implementing this feature.
The reasons to wake it up are the same as before. Recent contributions,
including to DRM[1] and binder[2] would prefer to use the 64-bit values
in their interfaces without gotchas like having to use copy_from_user().
