Mark Rutland 1dfe3a5a7c entry: Remove empty addr_limit_user_check()
Back when set_fs() was a generic API for altering the address limit,
addr_limit_user_check() was a safety measure to prevent userspace being
able to issue syscalls with an unbound limit.

With the the removal of set_fs() as a generic API, the last user of
addr_limit_user_check() was removed in commit:

  b5a5a01d8e ("arm64: uaccess: remove addr_limit_user_check()")

... as since that commit, no architecture defines TIF_FSCHECK, and hence
addr_limit_user_check() always expands to nothing.

Remove addr_limit_user_check(), updating the comment in
exit_to_user_mode_prepare() to no longer refer to it. At the same time,
the comment is reworded to be a little more generic so as to cover
kmap_assert_nomap() in addition to lockdep_sys_exit().

No functional change.
