[PATCH] ARM: Fix userspace enter on LPAE with CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y

Booting an LPAE-enabled kernel built with CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y
fails when starting userspace:

    Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x00000004
    CPU: 1 PID: 1 Comm: init Tainted: G        W        N 6.9.0-rc1-koelsch-00004-g7af5b901e847 #1930
    Hardware name: Generic R-Car Gen2 (Flattened Device Tree)
    Call trace:
     unwind_backtrace from show_stack+0x10/0x14
     show_stack from dump_stack_lvl+0x78/0xa8
     dump_stack_lvl from panic+0x118/0x398
     panic from do_exit+0x1ec/0x938
     do_exit from sys_exit_group+0x0/0x10
    ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!  exitcode=0x00000004 ]---

Add the missing memory clobber to cpu_set_ttbcr(), as suggested by
Russell King.

Force inlining of uaccess_save_and_enable(), as suggested by Ard
Biesheuvel.

The latter fixes booting on Koelsch.

Feel free to fold into the original commit.

Apparently the "From: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas at arm.com>" in
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240312-arm32-lpae-pan-v3-4-532647afcd38@linaro.org
is not reflected in commit 7af5b901e84743c6?
