Fixes sparse issues reported by the kbuild test robot running
on https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git
char-misc-testing: bde4a19fc04f5 ("binder: use userspace pointer as base
of buffer space")

Error output (drivers/android/binder_alloc_selftest.c):
sparse: warning: incorrect type in assignment (different address spaces)
sparse:    expected void *page_addr
sparse:    got void [noderef] <asn:1> *user_data
sparse: error: subtraction of different types can't work

Fixed by adding necessary "__user" tags.
