Sven Schnelle 6d97af487d entry: Rename arch_check_user_regs() to arch_enter_from_user_mode()
arch_check_user_regs() is used at the moment to verify that struct pt_regs
contains valid values when entering the kernel from userspace. s390 needs
a place in the generic entry code to modify a cpu data structure when
switching from userspace to kernel mode. As arch_check_user_regs() is
exactly this, rename it to arch_enter_from_user_mode().

When entering the kernel from userspace, arch_check_user_regs() is
used to verify that struct pt_regs contains valid values. Note that
the NMI codepath doesn't call this function. s390 needs a place in the
generic entry code to modify a cpu data structure when switching from
userspace to kernel mode. As arch_check_user_regs() is exactly this,
rename it to arch_enter_from_user_mode().
