Subject: [ 107/150] arm64: compat: use compat_uptr_t type for compat_ucontext.uc_link

3.8-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@....com>

commit c0e01d5d8f15c085236df184e5bc3d79a8b700cd upstream.

struct compat_ucontext * is a 64-bit pointer, so we need to use a
compat_uptr_t instead to avoid declaring a structure incompatible with
what AArch32 userspace expects.
