The powerpc user access code is special, and unlike other architectures
distinguishes between user access for reading and writing.
And commit 43a43faf5376 ("futex: improve user space accesses") messed
that up. It went undetected elsewhere, but caused ppc32 to fail early
during boot, because the user access had been started with
user_read_access_begin(), but then finished off with just a plain
"user_access_end()".
Note that the address-masking user access helpers don't even have that
read-vs-write distinction, so if powerpc ever wants to do address
masking tricks, we'll have to do some extra work for it.
[ Make sure to also do it for the EFAULT case, as pointed out by
Christophe Leroy ]
