db, extra, user_data: handle: *x = 1; return x;"

Say you have code like:

int *frob(void)
{
*x = 42;
return x;
}

It's good to know to record that *x is 42.  But the real reason for this
is because of memdup_user() which does:

void *memdup_user(void *src, size_t size)
{
...
copy_from_user(dest, src, size);
return dest;
}

In the old code, there was no way to record that the data it was returning
was user data.
