fe59e0358d arm64: lib: Use MOPS for usercopy routines
Similarly to what was done with the memcpy() routines, make
copy_to_user(), copy_from_user() and clear_user() also use the Armv8.8
FEAT_MOPS instructions.

Both MOPS implementation options (A and B) are supported, including
asymmetric systems. The exception fixup code fixes up the registers
according to the option used.

In case of a fault the routines return precisely how much was not copied
(as required by the comment in include/linux/uaccess.h), as unprivileged
versions of CPY/SET are guaranteed not to have written past the
addresses reported in the GPRs.

The MOPS instructions could possibly be inlined into callers (and
patched to branch to the generic implementation if not detected;
similarly to what x86 does), but as a first step this patch just uses
them in the out-of-line routines.

This converts the memcpy.S to use the copy template file. The copy
template file was based originally on the memcpy.S
