[PATCH 0/3] powerpc/sparse: constify addresses in get_user macros

Looking through the sparse warnings, I noticed that we were getting
warnings about dropping const qualifiers in get_user calls. This took
a while to figure out: it turns out that if you pass a const pointer
in, sparse will complain when we drop the const qualifier deep inside
the __get_user_ macros. This simple series fixes that, squashing over
60 warnings.

powerpc/sparse: constify the address pointer in __get_user_check
powerpc/sparse: constify the address pointer in __get_user_nocheck
powerpc/sparse: constify the address pointer in __get_user_nosleep
