The previous version of __get_user_instr called __get_user_nocheck,
this version calls __get_user. Likewise __get_user_instr_inatomic called
__get_user_nosleep and now it calls __get_user_inatomic. I was confused
by this until I chased the macro definitions and realised that both
names refer to the same thing:

#define __get_user(x, ptr) \
	__get_user_nocheck((x), (ptr), sizeof(*(ptr)), true)

#define __get_user_inatomic(x, ptr) \
	__get_user_nosleep((x), (ptr), sizeof(*(ptr)))

(I don't think you need to do anything here, I'm just documenting what I
considered while reviewing your patch.)

As such:
