4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Dan Williams <dan.j.willi...@intel.com> (cherry picked from commit b5c4ae4f35325d520b230bab6eb3310613b72ac1) In preparation for converting some __uaccess_begin() instances to __uacess_begin_nospec(), make sure all 'from user' uaccess paths are using the _begin(), _end() helpers rather than open-coded stac() and clac(). No functional changes.
