entry: Rename arch_check_user_regs() to arch_enter_from_user_mode()
arch_check_user_regs() is used at the moment to verify that struct pt_regs contains valid values when entering the kernel from userspace. s390 needs a place in the generic entry code to modify a cpu data structure when switching from userspace to kernel mode. As arch_check_user_regs() is exactly this, rename it to arch_enter_from_user_mode(). When entering the kernel from userspace, arch_check_user_regs() is used to verify that struct pt_regs contains valid values. Note that the NMI codepath doesn't call this function. s390 needs a place in the generic entry code to modify a cpu data structure when switching from userspace to kernel mode. As arch_check_user_regs() is exactly this, rename it to arch_enter_from_user_mode().
