Don't assume dest/source buffers are userspace addresses when manually
copying data for string I/O or MOVS MMIO, as {get,put}_user() will fail
if handed a kernel address and ultimately lead to a kernel panic.

This patch is tested by invoking INSB/OUTSB instructions in kernel space in a
SEV-ES-enabled VM. Without the patch, the kernel crashed with the following
message:
"SEV-ES: Unsupported exception in #VC instruction emulation - can't continue"
With the patch, the instructions successfully read/wrote the string from/to
the I/O port.
