3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Andreas Schwab <sch...@linux-m68k.org>
commit 9e2760d18b3cf179534bbc27692c84879c61b97c upstream.
User space access must always go through uaccess accessors, since on
classic m68k user space and kernel space are completely separate.
