Kernel: Assert that copy_to/from_user() are called with user addresses

This will panic the kernel immediately if these functions are misused
so we can catch it and fix the misuse.

This patch fixes a couple of misuses:

    - create_signal_trampolines() writes to a user-accessible page
      above the 3GB address mark. We should really get rid of this
      page but that's a whole other thing.

    - CoW faults need to use copy_from_user rather than copy_to_user
      since it's the *source* pointer that points to user memory.

    - Inode faults need to use memcpy rather than copy_to_user since
      we're copying a kernel stack buffer into a quickmapped page.

This should make the copy_to/from_user() functions slightly less useful
for exploitation. Before this, they were essentially just glorified
memcpy() with SMAP disabled. :^)
