------------------------------------------------------
From: James Hogan <james.hogan@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: lib/test_user_copy.c: check user string accessors

Add basic success/failure checking of the user string functions which copy
or find the length of userland strings.

The following cases are checked:
- strncpy_from_user() with legitimate user to kernel addresses, illegal
  all-kernel and reversed addresses, and legitimate all-kernel
  addresses.
- strnlen_user()/strlen_user() with a legitimate user address, an
  illegal kernel address, and a legitimate kernel address.

This caught a bug in the MIPS Enhanced Virtual Memory (EVA)
implementation:
test_user_copy: illegal strlen_user passed

Due to strlen_user() accidentally always using normal kernel loads, and
the EVA user/kernel address ranges overlapping.

New tests:
- legitimate strncpy_from_user
- legitimate strnlen_user
- legitimate strlen_user
- illegal all-kernel strncpy_from_user
- illegal reversed strncpy_from_user
- illegal strnlen_user
- illegal strlen_user
- legitimate all-kernel strncpy_from_user
- legitimate kernel strnlen_user
- legitimate kernel strlen_user
