new helper: compat_user_stack_pointer()
Compat counterpart of current_user_stack_pointer(); for most of the biarch architectures those two are identical, but e.g. arm64 and arm use different registers for stack pointer... Note that amd64 variants of current_user_stack_pointer/compat_user_stack_pointer do *not* rely on pt_regs having been through FIXUP_TOP_OF_STACK. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
