[PATCH v5 08/37] arm64/gcs: Provide copy_to_user_gcs()

In order for EL1 to write to an EL0 GCS it must use the GCSSTTR instruction
rather than a normal STTR. Provide a copy_to_user_gcs() which does this.
Since it is not possible to store anything other than a 64 bit value the
interface is presented in terms of 64 bit values, using unsigned long
rather than u64 due to sparse.
