3.16.52-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Peter Zijlstra <pet...@infradead.org>
commit 7c4788950ba5922fde976d80b72baf46f14dee8d upstream.
I recently encountered wreckage because access_ok() was used where it
should not be, add an explicit WARN when access_ok() is used wrongly.

[bwh: Backported to 3.16:
- Adjust filename
- Include <linux/preempt_mask.h> in <asm/uaccess.h> since it's not included by
<linux/uaccess.h>]
