Alex Smith d93ed09564 Improved safety for user memory accesses.
* Changed IS_USER_ADDRESS to check an address using USER_BASE and
  USER_SIZE, rather than just !IS_KERNEL_ADDRESS. The old check would
  allow user buffers to point into the physical memory map area.
* Added an unmapped hole at the end of the bottom half of the address
  space which catches buffers that cross into the uncanonical address
  region. This also removes the need to check for uncanonical return
  addresses in the syscall handler, it is no longer possible for the
  return address to be uncanonical under normal circumstances. All
  cases in which the return address might be changed by the kernel
  are still handled via the IRET path.

** User space layout is a little special:
** The user space does not completely cover the space not covered by the kernel.
** This is accomplished by starting user space at 1Mb and running to 64kb short of kernel space.
** The lower 1Mb reserved spot makes it easy to find null pointer references and guarantees a
** region wont be placed there. The 64kb region assures a user space thread cannot pass
** a buffer into the kernel as part of a syscall that would cross into kernel space.
