This is a follow up on the V3 feedback:

   https://lore.kernel.org/20251017085938.150569636@linutronix.de

Changes vs. V3:

  - Remove the superflouous if (1) in the scope macro - Andrew

  - Use asm_inline in the x86 conversion - Andrew

  - Rename to scoped_user_*_access(), remove underscores, use a void
    intermediate pointer and add a comment vs. access range - David

  - Use read scope in select - PeterZ

  - Fix comments, shorten local variables and remove pointless brackets -
    Mathieu

  - Simplify the coccinelle script, which needs still more polishing -
    Julia

The series is based on v6.18-rc1 and also available from git:

    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tglx/devel.git uaccess/masked

Thanks,

	tglx
