The kernel consider thread AMR value for kernel thread to be
AMR_KUAP_BLOCKED. Hence access to userspace is denied. This
of course not correct and we should allow userspace access after
kthread_use_mm(). To be precise, kthread_use_mm() should inherit the
AMR value of the operating address space. But, the AMR value is
thread-specific and we inherit the address space and not thread
access restrictions. Because of this ignore AMR value when accessing
userspace via kernel thread.
current_thread_amr/iamr() are also updated, because we use them in the
below stack.
