powerpc/uaccess: Cast away __user annotation after verification
Sparse reports dereference of a __user pointer. copy_mc_to_user() takes a __user pointer, verifies it, then calls the generic copy routine copy_mc_generic(). As we have verified the pointer, cast out the __user annotation when passing to copy_mc_generic().

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.
