In x86-64, copy_to/from_user() rely on assembly routines that never
call might_fault(), making us missing various lockdep checks.

This doesn't apply to __copy_from,to_user() that explicitly handle
these calls, neither is it a problem in x86-32 where
copy_to,from_user() rely on the "__" prefixed versions that also call
might_fault().
