x86/uaccess: Tell the compiler that uaccess is unlikely to fault

Browse Source 
GCC doesn't realize that get_user(), put_user(), and their __
variants are unlikely to fail.  Tell it.

I noticed this while playing with the C entry code.

 Before:
       text     data      bss       dec    filename
   21828763  5194760  1277952  28301475    vmlinux.baseline

 After:
      text      data      bss       dec    filename
   21828379  5194760  1277952  28301091    vmlinux.new

The generated code shrunk by 384 bytes.
