Subject: [PATCH v4 10/14] arm64: Store the arguments to copy_*_user on the stack

This preserves the initial arguments of the user copy calls so that
they can be restored by the fixup routines.

The values in the relevant three registers (x0/dstin, x1/src,
x2/count) may be modified by the optimized memcpy algorithm for large
copy sizes, and this stores them before it begins executing.

The stack is used instead of other general-purpose registers due to
resource constraints: the algorithm is optimized with respect to the
Procedure Call Standard in the Arm ABI, which assumes that x0-x17
can be used as scratch registers and utilizes all of them during
copying, but leaves alone the rest that have specific uses in the
broader system. As there are no more temporary registers, the stack
can be used to preserve the initial arguments to provide fixup
routines with more information to use in the calculation of the
number of bytes that failed to copy.

The stack pointer is restored to its initial position, either from
the fixup code in the case of a fault, or at the end of the copy
algorithm otherwise (uaccess_finish is extended to restore the sp,
and this code is also moved to copy_template_user.S as it is common
to all of the copy routines that access userspace memory).
