[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915: Remove redundant user_access_end() from __copy_from_user() error path

Objtool reports:

  drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gem/i915_gem_execbuffer.o: warning: objtool: .altinstr_replacement+0x36: redundant UACCESS disable

__copy_from_user() already does both STAC and CLAC, so the
user_access_end() in its error path adds an extra unnecessary CLAC.

Fixes: 0b2c8f8b6b0c ("i915: fix missing user_access_end() in page fault exception case")
