    select: Fix unbalanced user_access_end()
    
    [ Upstream commit 344af27715ddbf357cf76978d674428b88f8e92d ]
    
    While working on implementing user access validation on powerpc
    I got the following warnings on a pmac32_defconfig build:
    
              CC      fs/select.o
            fs/select.o: warning: objtool: sys_pselect6+0x1bc: redundant UACCESS disable
            fs/select.o: warning: objtool: sys_pselect6_time32+0x1bc: redundant UACCESS disable
    
    On powerpc/32s, user_read_access_begin/end() are no-ops, but the
    failure path has a user_access_end() instead of user_read_access_end()
    which means an access end without any prior access begin.
    
    Replace that user_access_end() by user_read_access_end().
