The type of the value to write should be determined by the size of the
destination, not by the value itself, which may be a constant. This
aligns the behavior with x86_64, where __typeof__(*(__gu_ptr)) is used
to infer the correct type.
This fixes an issue in put_cmsg, which was only writing 4 out of 8
bytes to the cmsg_len field, causing the glibc tst-socket-timestamp test
to fail.
Fixes: ca1a66cdd6 ("riscv: uaccess: do not do misaligned accesses in get/put_user()")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
