arm64: uaccess: ensure extension of access_ok() addr
commit a06040d7a791a9177581dcf7293941bd92400856 upstream. Our access_ok() simply hands its arguments over to __range_ok(), which implicitly assummes that the addr parameter is 64 bits wide. This isn't necessarily true for compat code, which might pass down a 32-bit address parameter. In these cases, we don't have a guarantee that the address has been zero extended to 64 bits, and the upper bits of the register may contain unknown values, potentially resulting in a suprious failure. Avoid this by explicitly casting the addr parameter to an unsigned long (as is done on other architectures), ensuring that the parameter is widened appropriately.
