arm64: uaccess: Formalise types for access_ok()



In converting __range_ok() into a static inline, I inadvertently made
it more type-safe, but without considering the ordering of the relevant
conversions. This leads to quite a lot of Sparse noise about the fact
that we use __chk_user_ptr() after addr has already been converted from
a user pointer to an unsigned long.

Rather than just adding another cast for the sake of shutting Sparse up,
it seems reasonable to rework the types to make logical sense (although
the resulting codegen for __range_ok() remains identical). The only
callers this affects directly are our compat traps where the inferred
"user-pointer-ness" of a register value now warrants explicit casting.
