arm64: ensure __dump_instr() checks addr_limit
commit 7a7003b1da010d2b0d1dc8bf21c10f5c73b389f1 upstream. It's possible for a user to deliberately trigger __dump_instr with a chosen kernel address. Let's avoid problems resulting from this by using get_user() rather than __get_user(), ensuring that we don't erroneously access kernel memory. Where we use __dump_instr() on kernel text, we already switch to KERNEL_DS, so this shouldn't adversely affect those cases.
