usercopy: fold builtin_const check into inline function
Instead of having each caller of check_object_size() need to remember to check for a const size parameter, move the check into check_object_size() itself. This actually matches the original implementation in PaX, though this commit cleans up the now-redundant builtin_const() calls in the various architectures.
