um: Implement probe_kernel_read()
UML needs it's own probe_kernel_read() to handle kernel mode faults correctly. The implementation uses mincore() on the host side to detect whether a page is owned by the UML kernel process. This fixes also a possible crash when sysrq-t is used. Starting with 3.10 sysrq-t calls probe_kernel_read() to read details from the kernel workers. As kernel worker are completely async pointers may turn NULL while reading them.
