Subject: [PATCH v3 4/4] arm64/syscalls: Move address limit check in loop
A bug was reported on ARM where set_fs might be called after it was
checked on the work pending function. ARM64 is not affected by this bug
but has a similar construct. In order to avoid any similar problems in
the future, the addr_limit_user_check function is moved at the beginning
of the loop.
Fixes: cf7de27ab351 ("arm64/syscalls: Check address limit on user-mode return")
