Instead of using the dangerous probe_kernel_read and strncpy_from_unsafe helpers, rework the compat probes to check if an address is a kernel or userspace one, and then use the low-level kernel or user probe helper shared by the proper kernel and user probe helpers. This slightly changes behavior as the compat probe on a user address doesn't check the lockdown flags, just as the pure user probes do.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
