There are some empty trap_init() definitions in different ARCHs, Introduce
a new weak trap_init() function to clean them up.

<title>asm-generic: reverse GENERIC_{STRNCPY_FROM,STRNLEN}_USER symbols</title>

<content type='text'>
Most architectures do not need a custom implementation, and in most
cases the generic implementation is preferred, so change the polariy
on these Kconfig symbols to require architectures to select them when
they provide their own version.

The new name is CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_{STRNCPY_FROM,STRNLEN}_USER.

The remaining architectures at the moment are: ia64, mips, parisc,
um and xtensa. We should probably convert these as well, but
I was not sure how far to take this series. Thomas Bogendoerfer
had some concerns about converting mips but may still do some
more detailed measurements to see which version is better.

As these are now in asm-generic, it's no longer necessary to
declare them in the architecture.

Remove the hexagon implementation of strncpy/strnlen and instead use
the generic version.  The hexagon version reads the data twice for
strncpy() by doing an extra strnlen(), and it apparently lacks a check
for user_addr_max().

<title>asm-generic/uaccess.h: remove __strncpy_from_user/__strnlen_user</title>

This is a preparation for changing over architectures to the
generic implementation one at a time. As there are no callers
of either __strncpy_from_user() or __strnlen_user(), fold these
into the strncpy_from_user() and strnlen_user() functions to make
each implementation independent of the others.

Many of these implementations have known bugs, but the intention
here is to not change behavior at all and stay compatible with
those bugs for the moment.
