[BusyBox] 0.48 - Can't mount /proc

[Quinn Jensen]

Here's a kernel patch.  The __access_ok macro looks one byte
too far and fails.  Since copy_mount_options() isn't
sure how long the string arguments are, it just copies
to the end of the page.  Since this is on busybox's
stack, the copy wants to go all the way to 0x7FFFFFF
and hits this corner case.
