This isn't a bug, but the get and put variants now carry the same rule
in two different wordings - would it read better to keep the two
comments identical, or to have the put side just point at the get side?

The comment above __get_kernel_nofault says "As dst and src may contain
blocking functions, evaluate them before overriding TCO," while the
comment above __put_kernel_nofault keeps the original "As `dst` and
`src` may contain blocking functions, we must evaluate these outside of
the critical section" - including the backticks that the get variant
dropped.

Also, should the wrapped argument line up under the open paren here
(four tabs plus two spaces rather than five)?

> +	__get_kernel_nofault_bare(__gkn_tco_dst, __gkn_tco_src, type,	\
> +				     __gkn_tco_err);			\

The continuation line sits at column 37, while the open parenthesis of
__get_kernel_nofault_bare( sits at column 34. The same three-column
offset appears in __put_kernel_nofault at line 412.
