Subject: [PATCH] compat: Make compat_alloc_user_space() incorporate the access_ok()

compat_alloc_user_space() expects the caller to independently call
access_ok() to verify the returned area.  A missing call could
introduce problems on some architectures.

This patch incorporates the access_ok() check into
compat_alloc_user_space() and also adds a sanity check on the length.
The existing compat_alloc_user_space() implementations are renamed
arch_compat_alloc_user_space() and are used as part of the
implementation of the new global function.

This patch assumes NULL will cause __get_user()/__put_user() to either
fail or access userspace on all architectures.  This should be
followed by checking the return value of compat_access_user_space()
for NULL in the callers, at which time the access_ok() in the callers
can also be removed.
