x86/syscalls: Check address limit on user-mode return
Ensure the address limit is a user-mode segment before returning to
user-mode. Otherwise a process can corrupt kernel-mode memory and elevate
privileges [1].
The set_fs function sets the TIF_SETFS flag to force a slow path on
return. In the slow path, the address limit is checked to be USER_DS if
needed.
The addr_limit_user_check function is added as a cross-architecture
function to check the address limit.
