Russell King d2c5b69099 [ARM] Fix get_user when passed a const pointer
Unfortunately, later gcc versions error out when our get_user is passed
a const pointer, since we write to a temporary variable declared as
typeof(*(p)) which propagates the const-ness.

* These functions have a non-standard call interface to make them more
* efficient, especially as they return an error value in addition to
* the "real" return value.
*
* __get_user_X
*
* Inputs: r0 contains the address
* Outputs: r0 is the error code
* r2, r3 contains the zero-extended value
* lr corrupted
*
* No other registers must be altered. (see include/asm-arm/uaccess.h
* for specific ASM register usage).
*
* Note that ADDR_LIMIT is either 0 or 0xc0000000.
* Note also that it is intended that __get_user_bad is not global.
