[LV] [PATCH] Fix the entry mask of __copy_tofrom_user()

[Maciej W. Rozycki]

 The entry mask of __copy_tofrom_user() is wrong -- temporary registers 
need no saving normally and we do not call this function from any special 
context to make it any different in this respect.

 Thanks, Jan-Benedict, for catching this one!

 Please apply.  Eventually our implementation of the ENTRY() macro should 
mimic what the userland variation does, that is accept the mask as its 
second argument.  But that should be done as a separate patch with no 
semantic changes.
