Sean Christopherson 56f289a8d2 KVM: x86: Add a helper to retrieve userspace address from kvm_device_attr
Add a helper to handle converting the u64 userspace address embedded in
struct kvm_device_attr into a userspace pointer, it's all too easy to
forget the intermediate "unsigned long" cast as well as the truncation
check.

No functional change intended.

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.
