The value argument to put_user() must be evaluated before the TTBR0
switch is done.  Otherwise, if it is a function and the function sleeps,
the reserved TTBR0 will be restored when the process is switched in
again and the process will end up in an infinite loop of faults.

This problem was seen with the put_user() in schedule_tail().  A similar
fix was done for RISC-V in commit 285a76bb2cf51b0c74c634 ("riscv:
evaluate put_user() arg before enabling user access").

Fixes: f253d827f33cb5a5990 ("arm64: uaccess: refactor __{get,put}_user")
