#define user_read_access_end            prevent_current_read_from_user
#define user_write_access_end           prevent_current_write_to_user
static inline void prevent_current_read_from_user(void)
{
        prevent_user_access(NULL, NULL, ~0UL, KUAP_CURRENT_READ);
}

static inline void prevent_current_write_to_user(void)
{
        prevent_user_access(NULL, NULL, ~0UL, KUAP_CURRENT_WRITE);
}

and prevent_user_access() has instances that do care about the direction...
