Subject: [PATCH 4.4 096/118] nios2: fix __get_user()

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

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

From: Al Viro <viro@...iv.linux.org.uk>

commit 2e29f50ad5e23db37dde9be71410d95d50241ecd upstream.

a) should not leave crap on fault
b) should _not_ require access_ok() in any cases.
