* verify_area: - Obsolete/deprecated and will go away soon,

* @addr: User space pointer to start of block to check
* @size: Size of block to check
*
* Context: User context only. This function may sleep.

* This function has been replaced by access_ok().
*
* Checks if a pointer to a block of memory in user space is valid.
*
* Returns zero if the memory block may be valid, -EFAULT
* if it is definitely invalid.
*
* See access_ok() for more details.
