The recent rework of probe_kernel_address() and its conversion to
get_kernel_nofault() inadvertently broke is_prefetch(). Before this change,
probe_kernel_address() was used as a sloppy "read user or kernel memory"
helper, but it doesn't do that any more. The new get_kernel_nofault()
reads *kernel* memory only, which completely broke is_prefetch() for user
access.
Adjust the code to the the correct accessor based on access mode. The
manual address bounds check is no longer necessary, since the accessor
helpers (get_user() / get_kernel_nofault()) do the right thing all by
themselves. As a bonus, by using the correct accessor, we don't need the
open-coded address bounds check.
