mm/usercopy.c: no check page span for stack objects

It is easy to trigger this with CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY_PAGESPAN=y,

  usercopy: Kernel memory overwrite attempt detected to spans multiple pages (offset 0, size 23)!
  kernel BUG at mm/usercopy.c:102!

For example,

print_worker_info
char name[WQ_NAME_LEN] = { };
char desc[WORKER_DESC_LEN] = { };
  probe_kernel_read(name, wq->name, sizeof(name) - 1);
  probe_kernel_read(desc, worker->desc, sizeof(desc) - 1);
    __copy_from_user_inatomic
      check_object_size
        check_heap_object
          check_page_span

This is because on-stack variables could cross PAGE_SIZE boundary, and
failed this check,

if (likely(((unsigned long)ptr & (unsigned long)PAGE_MASK) ==
	   ((unsigned long)end & (unsigned long)PAGE_MASK)))

ptr = FFFF889007D7EFF8
end = FFFF889007D7F00E

Hence, fix it by checking if it is a stack object first.
