Recent change in how get_user() handles pointers [1] has a specific case for LAM. It assigns a different bitmask that's later used to check whether a pointer comes from userland in get_user().
Add test case to LAM that utilizes a ioctl (FIOASYNC) syscall which uses get_user() in its implementation. Execute the syscall with differently tagged pointers to verify that valid user pointers are passing through and invalid kernel/non-canonical pointers are not.

Signed-off-by: Maciej Wieczor-Retman maciej.wieczor-retman@intel.com --- Changelog v6: - Update la57 checking function name. - Fix typo and add comment to the ioctl() usage.
Changelog v4: - Use the changed cpu_has_la57() instead of mmap() to figure out current paging level. - Apply Kirill's other comments: Remove redundant always true check, close the ioctl file before exiting, change mapping size to PAGE_SIZE so it looks less odd. - Turn this patch into a series and move some text to the cover letter.
Changelog v3: - mmap the pointer passed to get_user to high address if 5 level paging is enabled and to low address if 4 level paging is enabled.
Changelog v2: - Use mmap with HIGH_ADDR to check if we're in 5 or 4 level pagetables.
