Properly use masked_user_read_access_begin() and masked_user_write_access_begin() instead of masked_user_access_begin() in order to match user_read_access_end() and user_write_access_end(). This is important for architectures like powerpc that enable separately user reads and user writes.
That means masked_user_read_access_begin() is used when user memory is exclusively read during the window and masked_user_write_access_begin() is used when user memory is exclusively writen during the window. masked_user_access_begin() remains and is used when both reads and writes are performed during the open window. Each of them is expected to be terminated by the matching user_read_access_end(), user_write_access_end() and user_access_end().
