Since commit c33165253492 ("powerpc: use non-set_fs based maccess
routines"), userspace access is not granted anymore when using
copy_from_kernel_nofault()

However, kthread_probe_data() uses copy_from_kernel_nofault()
to check validity of pointers. When the pointer is NULL,
it points to userspace, leading to a KUAP fault and triggering
the following big hammer warning many times when you request
a sysrq "show task":

To avoid that, copy_from_kernel_nofault_allowed() is used to check
whether the address is a valid kernel address. But the default
version of it returns true for any address.

Provide a powerpc version of copy_from_kernel_nofault_allowed()
that returns false when the address is below TASK_USER_MAX,
so that copy_from_kernel_nofault() will return -ERANGE.

This issue was introduced in 5.10-rc1. I didn't mark it for stable, hopping it 
will go into 5.10

v2: Using is_kernel_addr() instead of comparison to TASK_SIZE_MAX.
