[PATCH 5/16] UML - Fix some usercopy confusion

From: Jeff Dike
Date: Mon Mar 07 2005 - 14:47:36 EST


This fixes a couple of copy-user problems spotted by Al Viro.
copy_sc_from_user_tt was doing a copy_from_user to do an in-kernel
assignment. I commented this, at the request of Chris Wedgewood.
sys_ipc had a void *__user ptr which should have been void __user *ptr.
Finally, there were a couple of bogus __user annotations on unsigned longs,
which were never going to be passed into copy_user.
