We've got a special word for it: outline. Can you name it
CONFIG_OUTLINE_USERCOPY, or similar?

Andrew has taken my consolidation patch for INLINE_COPY_USER:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260427085814.7ca0b134603b8d5813e23396@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
Please base your series on top of it.
I'm not sure this patch is relevant to the goal of your series. Maybe
send it separately?
Thanks,
Yury
