  lkdtm: adjust usercopy tests to bypass const checks (2016-09-06 12:17:30 -0700)

----------------------------------------------------------------
- Inlines copy_*_user() for correct use of __builtin_const_p() for hardened
  usercopy and the recent compile-time checks.
- Switches hardened usercopy to only check non-const size arguments to avoid
  meaningless checks on likely-sane const values.
- Updates lkdtm usercopy tests to compenstate for the const checking.

----------------------------------------------------------------

      x86/uaccess: force copy_*_user() to be inlined
      usercopy: fold builtin_const check into inline function
