struct user.u_ar0 is defined to contain a pointer offset on all
architectures in which it is defined (all architectures which define
an a.out format except SPARC.)  However, it has a pointer type in the
headers, which is pointless -- <asm/user.h> is not exported to
userspace, and it just makes the code messy.

Redefine the field as "unsigned long" (which is the same size as a
pointer on all Linux architectures) and change the setting code to
user offsetof() instead of hand-coded arithmetic.
