SMAP will generated page faults when the kernel tries to access user pages unless overriden.
If SMAP is enabled, the override instructions are written where needed in memory with
binary "altcodepatches".
Support is enabled by default, might be disabled per safemode setting.

This patch adds user_access() which can be used to gracefully handle
page faults that may happen when accessing user memory. It is used
by arch_cpu_user{memcpy, memset, strlcpy}() to allow using optimized
functions from the standard library.
Currently only x64 uses this, but nothing really is arch specific here.
