With the set_fs change, we can no longer rely on copy_{to,from}_user()
accepting a kernel pointer, and it was bad form to do so anyway. Clean
this up and change the internal helper that io_uring uses to deal with
kernel pointers instead. This puts the offset copy in/out in __do_splice()
instead, which just calls the same helper.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
