generalize lgread_u32/lgwrite_u32.

Browse Source 
Jes complains that page table code still uses lgread_u32 even though
it now uses general kernel pte types.  The best thing to do is to
generalize lgread_u32 and lgwrite_u32.

This means we lose the efficiency of getuser().  We could potentially
regain it if we used __copy_from_user instead of copy_from_user, but
I'm not certain that our range check is equivalent to access_ok() on
all platforms.
