The usercopy one is difficult, that's copy_user_handle_tail(), it is
buggered though, because that lacks notrace and thus has a __fentry__
call in.

Also, afaict all exception jumps into copy_user_handle_tail() will have
AC=1, but the __{get,put}_user_nocheck() things do STAC/CLAC all over
again.

So what do we do? Annotate that we start with AC=1 and then immediately
do the clac, and then let __{get,put}_user_nocheck() do their own thing?
or make it use the unsafe stuff?
