lkdtm: fix ACCESS_USERSPACE test



Add a copy_to_user() call to the ACCESS_USERSPACE test
prior to attempting direct dereferencing of the user
address to ensure the page is present.  Otherwise,
a fault occurs on arm kernels even prior to the introduction
of CONFIG_CPU_SW_DOMAIN_PAN, and there is no difference in
behavior for CONFIG_CPU_SW_DOMAIN_PAN=n vs CONFIG_CPU_SW_DOMAIN_PAN=y.

Before this change, for any value of CONFIG_CPU_SW_DOMAIN_PAN:
lkdtm: Performing direct entry ACCESS_USERSPACE
lkdtm: attempting bad read at b6fe8000
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address b6fe8000

After this change, for CONFIG_CPU_SW_DOMAIN_PAN=n:
lkdtm: Performing direct entry ACCESS_USERSPACE
lkdtm: attempting bad read at b6efc000
lkdtm: attempting bad write at b6efc000

After this change, for CONFIG_CPU_SW_DOMAIN_PAN=y:
lkdtm: Performing direct entry ACCESS_USERSPACE
lkdtm: attempting bad read at b6f7d000
Unhandled fault: page domain fault (0x01b) at 0xb6f7d000
