commit eb1b66887472eaa7342305b7890ae510dd9d1a79 upstream.
Convert the bpf_probe_write_user() helper to probe_user_write() such that
writes are not attempted under KERNEL_DS anymore which is buggy as kernel
and user space pointers can have overlapping addresses. Also, given we have
the access_ok() check inside probe_user_write(), the helper doesn't need
to do it twice.
Fixes: 96ae52279594 ("bpf: Add bpf_probe_write_user BPF helper to be called in tracers")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
