[PARISC] Fix copy_user_page_asm to NOT access past end of page
2.6.12-rc2-pa3 fix copy_user_page_asm to NOT access past end of page. My bad. /o\ Lamont confirmed that instructions following a conditional branch are *alway* executed regardless if the branch is taken or not. Unless they are nullified (which was missing in this case). He also noted: Conditional branches nullify on forward taken branch, and on non-taken backward branch. Note that .+4 is a backwards branch. This makes alot more sense than the giberish in the PA20 arch book. Compiles and boots on both 64-bit (a500) and 32-bit (j6k).
