[ Upstream commit a7e47f26039c26312a4144c3001b4e9fa886bd45 ]

After an objtool improvement, it's reporting that __memcpy_mcsafe() is
calling mcsafe_handle_tail() with AC=1:

  arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.o: warning: objtool: .fixup+0x13: call to mcsafe_handle_tail() with UACCESS enabled
  arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.o: warning: objtool:   __memcpy_mcsafe()+0x34: (alt)
  arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.o: warning: objtool:   __memcpy_mcsafe()+0xb: (branch)
  arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.o: warning: objtool:   __memcpy_mcsafe()+0x0: <=== (func)

mcsafe_handle_tail() is basically an extension of __memcpy_mcsafe(), so
AC=1 is supposed to be set.  Add mcsafe_handle_tail() to the uaccess
safe list.
