This isn't quite true. __get/put_kernel_nofault now sets a different
extable type (as the commit message says). But, nothing special seems
to be done with that, so there's effectively no functional change. Can
you please elaborate on the motivation for this change? Where will the
KACCESS type need to be distinguished from the UACCESS type?

Thanks,
