[PATCH 00/13] Make user_regset_copyin_ignore() *void*

[PATCH 00/13] Make user_regset_copyin_ignore() *void*

[Sergey Shtylyov]

Here are 13 patches against the 'next-20221014' tag of the 'linux-next.git'
repo.  I'm not sure how this cross-arch series should be merged -- perhaps
thru Andrew Morton's tree?

user_regset_copyin_ignore() apparently cannot fail and so always returns 0.
Let's first remove the result checks in several architectures that call this
function and then make user_regset_copyin_ignore() return *void* instead of
*int*...
