[PATCH] drm/radeon: fix __user annotation in radeon_info_ioctl()

[Ben Dooks]

The radeon_info_ioctl() is obviously called from an ioctl()
entry for this device, and uses copy_{to,from)_user() on
the value_ptr variable.

This is generating sparse warnings due to use lack of __user
annotation on the value_ptr, so add this to remove the
following warnings:

Claude review: drm/radeon: fix __user annotation in radeon_info_ioctl()

[Claude Code Review Bot]

Patch Review

**Status: Clean**

The patch makes two changes:

1. **Declaration split** — Separates `value_ptr` from the other `uint32_t` locals and gives it `__user`:
   ```c
   -	uint32_t *value, value_tmp, *value_ptr, value_size;
   +	uint32_t *value, value_tmp, value_size;
   +	uint32_t __user *value_ptr;
   ```

2. **Cast annotation** — Adds `__user` to the cast where `value_ptr` is assigned from `info->value`:
   ```c
   -	value_ptr = (uint32_t *)((unsigned long)info->value);
   +	value_ptr = (uint32_t __user *)((unsigned long)info->value);
   ```

Both changes are correct. `value_ptr` is used in six places in the function — five `copy_from_user()` calls and one `copy_to_user()` call — all of which expect a `__user` pointer. The fix eliminates all six sparse warnings listed in the commit message.

No functional change, no risk. Reviewed-by worthy.

This is a single, straightforward patch that adds the missing `__user` annotation to the `value_ptr` variable in `radeon_info_ioctl()`. The fix is correct and complete — `value_ptr` is derived from a user-space address (`info->value`) and is exclusively used with `copy_from_user()` and `copy_to_user()`, so it should indeed carry the `__user` annotation. This is a textbook sparse warning fix with no functional change.

**Verdict: Patch looks good. No issues found.**
