Hiroshi Shimamoto fe40c0af3c x86: uaccess: introduce try and catch framework
Impact: introduce new uaccess exception handling framework

Introduce {get|put}_user_try and {get|put}_user_catch as new uaccess exception
handling framework.
{get|put}_user_try begins exception block and {get|put}_user_catch(err) ends
the block and gets err if an exception occured in {get|put}_user_ex() in the
block. The exception is stored thread_info->uaccess_err.

The example usage of this framework is below;
int func()
{
	int err = 0;

	get_user_try {
		get_user_ex(...);
		get_user_ex(...);
		:
	} get_user_catch(err);

	return err;
}

Note: get_user_ex() is not clear the value when an exception occurs, it's
different from the behavior of __get_user(), but I think it doesn't matter.
