[PATCH] x86: Allow user accesses to the base of the guard page

[David Laight <David.Laight@ACULAB.COM>]

A user buffer can validly end with the last valid user address.
In that case access_ok(ptr, size) will check that 'ptr + size'
is a valid user address - and it needs to succeed.
access_ok() can't decrement the length because access_ok(ptr, 0)
also has to be valid.
Any actual access will fault.

Fixes: 86e6b1547b3d0 ("x86: fix user address masking non-canonical speculation issue")
