It's possible for a user to deliberately trigger __dump_instr with a chosen kernel address. Let's avoid problems resulting from this by using get_user() rather than __get_user(), ensuring that we don't erroneously access kernel memory. Where we use __dump_instr() on kernel text, we already switch to KERNEL_DS, so this shouldn't adversely affect those cases.
