Merge tag 'usercopy-v4.8-rc6-part2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux

Pull more hardened usercopyfixes from Kees Cook:

 - force check_object_size() to be inline too

 - move page-spanning check behind a CONFIG since it's triggering false
   positives

[ Changed the page-spanning config option to depend on EXPERT in the
  merge.  That way it still gets build testing, and you can enable it if
  you want to, but is never enabled for "normal" configurations ]

* tag 'usercopy-v4.8-rc6-part2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux:
  usercopy: remove page-spanning test for now
  usercopy: force check_object_size() inline

help
When a multi-page allocation is done without __GFP_COMP,
hardened usercopy will reject attempts to copy it. There are,
however, several cases of this in the kernel that have not all
been removed. This config is intended to be used only while
trying to find such users.
