rseq: Use get_user/put_user rather than __get_user/__put_user
__get_user()/__put_user() is used to read values for address ranges that were already checked with access_ok() on rseq registration. It has been recognized that __get_user/__put_user are optimizing the wrong thing. Replace them by get_user/put_user across rseq instead. If those end up showing up in benchmarks, the proper approach would be to use user_access_begin() / unsafe_{get,put}_user() / user_access_end() anyway.
