Subject: [PATCH] m68k: implement __clear_user()

m68k: implement __clear_user(), which is needed by fs/signalfd.c

Since we always let the MMU do all checking, clear_user() and __clear_user()
are identical. The old clear_user() is renamed to __clear_user() for
consistency.

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
