Btrfs: fix sparse warning



Fix the following sparse warning:
fs/btrfs/send.c:518:51: warning: incorrect type in argument 2 (different address spaces)
fs/btrfs/send.c:518:51:    expected char const [noderef] <asn:1>*<noident>
fs/btrfs/send.c:518:51:    got char *

We can safely use (const char __user *) with set_fs(KERNEL_DS)

__force added to avoid sparse-all warning:
fs/btrfs/send.c:518:40: warning: cast adds address space to expression (<asn:1>)
