Merge tag 'usercopy-v4.12-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux

Pull hardened usercopy updates from Kees Cook:
 "A couple hardened usercopy changes:

   - drop now unneeded is_vmalloc_or_module() check (Laura Abbott)

   - use enum instead of literals for stack frame API (Sahara)"
