David Hildenbrand b3c395ef55 mm/uaccess, mm/fault: Clarify that uaccess may only sleep if pagefaults are enabled
In general, non-atomic variants of user access functions must not sleep
if pagefaults are disabled.

Let's update all relevant comments in uaccess code. This also reflects
the might_sleep() checks in might_fault().

Michael S. Tsirkin 0ab066042d m32r: macro whitespace fixes
While working on arch/m32r/include/asm/uaccess.h, I noticed
that some macros within this header are made harder to read because they
violate a coding style rule: space is missing after comma.

Fix it up.

Michael S. Tsirkin a618337e8c m32r/uaccess: fix sparse errors
virtio wants to read bitwise types from userspace using get_user.  At the
moment this triggers sparse errors, since the value is passed through an
integer.

Fix that up using __force.

Michael S. Tsirkin 01682576d5 m32r: uaccess s/might_sleep/might_fault/
The only reason uaccess routines might sleep
is if they fault. Make this explicit.
