Subject: test: fix sparse warnings in user_copy tests

Sparse fix for "test: check copy_to/from_user boundary validation":

To keep sparse happy with the horrible things being done with the user
memory pointers, declare both __user and non-__user cases ahead of time to
avoid needing to do the casts later.
