   690	/**
   691	 * __scoped_user_access - Open a scope for user access
   692	 * @mode:	The mode of the access class (read, write, rw)
   693	 * @uptr:	The pointer to access user space memory
   694	 * @size:	Size of the access
   695	 * @elbl:	Error label to goto when the access region is rejected. It
   696	 *		must be placed outside the scope
   697	 *
   698	 * If the user access function inside the scope requires a fault label, it
   699	 * can use @elbl or a different label outside the scope, which requires
   700	 * that user access which is implemented with ASM GOTO has been properly
   701	 * wrapped. See unsafe_get_user() for reference.
   702	 *
   703	 *	scoped_user_rw_access(ptr, efault) {
   704	 *		unsafe_get_user(rval, &ptr->rval, efault);
   705	 *		unsafe_put_user(wval, &ptr->wval, efault);
   706	 *	}
   707	 *	return 0;
   708	 *  efault:
   709	 *	return -EFAULT;
   710	 *
   711	 * The scope is internally implemented as a autoterminating nested for()
   712	 * loop, which can be left with 'return', 'break' and 'goto' at any
   713	 * point.
   714	 *
   715	 * When the scope is left user_##@_mode##_access_end() is automatically
   716	 * invoked.
   717	 *
   718	 * When the architecture supports masked user access and the access region
   719	 * which is determined by @uptr and @size is not a valid user space
   720	 * address, i.e. < TASK_SIZE, the scope sets the pointer to a faulting user
   721	 * space address and does not terminate early. This optimizes for the good
   722	 * case and lets the performance uncritical bad case go through the fault.
   723	 *
   724	 * The eventual modification of the pointer is limited to the scope.
   725	 * Outside of the scope the original pointer value is unmodified, so that
   726	 * the original pointer value is available for diagnostic purposes in an
   727	 * out of scope fault path.
   728	 *
   729	 * Nesting scoped user access into a user access scope is invalid and fails
   730	 * the build. Nesting into other guards, e.g. pagefault is safe.
   731	 *
   732	 * The masked variant does not check the size of the access and relies on a
   733	 * mapping hole (e.g. guard page) to catch an out of range pointer, the
   734	 * first access to user memory inside the scope has to be within
   735	 * @uptr ... @uptr + PAGE_SIZE - 1
   736	 *
   737	 * Don't use directly. Use scoped_masked_user_$MODE_access() instead.
