objtool: Add mcsafe_handle_tail() to the uaccess safe list
After an objtool improvement, it's reporting that __memcpy_mcsafe() is calling mcsafe_handle_tail() with AC=1: arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.o: warning: objtool: .fixup+0x13: call to mcsafe_handle_tail() with UACCESS enabled arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.o: warning: objtool: __memcpy_mcsafe()+0x34: (alt) arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.o: warning: objtool: __memcpy_mcsafe()+0xb: (branch) arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.o: warning: objtool: __memcpy_mcsafe()+0x0: <=== (func) mcsafe_handle_tail() is basically an extension of __memcpy_mcsafe(), so AC=1 is supposed to be set. Add mcsafe_handle_tail() to the uaccess safe list.
