unsafe_clear_user does not exist at this point, and even your later
patch only adds it for powerpc.


You missed below chunck I guess:

That doesn't help with architectures that define user_access_begin but
do not define unsafe_clear_user. (i.e. x86).


Yes, the day they want to use unsafe_copy_siginfo_to_user() they'll have to implement unsafe_clear_user().

Until that day, they don't need unsafe_clear_user() and I'm sure the result would be disastrous if a poor powerpc guy like me was trying to implement some low level x86 code.

Similar to unsafe_get_compat_sigset(), an arch wanting to use it has to implement unsafe_copy_from_user().
