sh: __copy_user function can corrupt the stack in case of exception
The __copy_user function can corrupt the stack in the case of a
non-trivial length of data, and either of the first two move instructions
cause an exception. This is because the fixup for these two instructions
is mapped to the no_pop case, but these instructions execute after the
stack is pushed.
This change creates an explicit NO_POP exception mapping macro, and uses
it for the two instructions executed in the trivial case where no stack
pushes occur.
