arm64: avoid multiple evaluation of ptr in get_user/put_user()
get_user() is defined as a function macro in arm64, and trace_get_user() calls it as followed: get_user(ch, ptr++); Since the second parameter occurs twice in the definition, 'ptr++' is unexpectedly evaluated twice and trace_get_user() will generate a bogus string from user-provided one. As a result, some ftrace sysfs operations, like "echo FUNCNAME > set_ftrace_filter," hit this case and eventually fail. This patch fixes the issue both in get_user() and put_user().
