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

Commit 73839798af7ebc6c8d0c9271ebbbc148700e521f upstream.
When setting a dummy iwmmxt context, create a local instance and use __copy_to_user both cases whether iwmmxt is being used or not. This has the benefit of disabling/enabling PAN once for the whole copy intead of once per write.
