[PATCH 4/4] x86/fpu/xstate: Copy xstate registers directly to signal frame when compacted format is in use

[Yu-cheng Yu <yu-cheng.yu@intel.com>]

XSAVES is a kernel instruction and uses a compacted format. When working
with user space, the kernel should provide standard-format, non-supervisor
state data. We cannot do __copy_to_user() from a compacted-format kernel
xstate area to a signal frame.

Dave Hansen proposes this method to simplify copy xstate directly to user.
Based on an earlier patch from Fenghua Yu <fenghua.yu@intel.com>
