Christophe Leroy c20beffeec powerpc/uaccess: Use flexible addressing with __put_user()/__get_user()
At the time being, __put_user()/__get_user() and friends only use
D-form addressing, with 0 offset. Ex:

	lwz	reg1, 0(reg2)

Give the compiler the opportunity to use other adressing modes
whenever possible, to get more optimised code.

Hereunder is a small exemple:

struct test {
	u32 item1;
	u16 item2;
	u8 item3;
	u64 item4;
};

int set_test_user(struct test __user *from, struct test __user *to)
{
	int err;
	u32 item1;
	u16 item2;
	u8 item3;
	u64 item4;

	err = __get_user(item1, &from->item1);
	err |= __get_user(item2, &from->item2);
	err |= __get_user(item3, &from->item3);
	err |= __get_user(item4, &from->item4);

	err |= __put_user(item1, &to->item1);
	err |= __put_user(item2, &to->item2);
	err |= __put_user(item3, &to->item3);
	err |= __put_user(item4, &to->item4);

	return err;
}
