ARM: 9290/1: uaccess: Fix KASAN false-positives
__copy_to_user_memcpy() and __clear_user_memset() had been calling memcpy() and memset() respectively, leading to false-positive KASAN reports when starting userspace: [ 10.707901] Run /init as init process [ 10.731892] process '/bin/busybox' started with executable stack [ 10.745234] ================================================================== [ 10.745796] BUG: KASAN: user-memory-access in __clear_user_memset+0x258/0x3ac [ 10.747260] Write of size 2687 at addr 000de581 by task init/1 Use __memcpy() and __memset() instead to allow userspace access, which is of course the intent of these functions.
