[v3,02/31] usercopy: Enforce slab cache usercopy region boundaries

Commit Message

From: David Windsor <[e-mail]>

This patch adds the enforcement component of usercopy cache whitelisting,
and is modified from Brad Spengler/PaX Team's PAX_USERCOPY whitelisting
code in the last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on my understanding
of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code are mine and
don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code.

The SLAB and SLUB allocators are modified to deny all copy operations
in which the kernel heap memory being modified falls outside of the cache's
defined usercopy region.

Looks like this is almost the same for all allocators. Can we put this
into mm/slab_common.c?
