setup/restore_sigcontext() want to copy all related registers between
user and kernel. So use block copy instead of each registers copy. Then
can let code simple and clearer (which can avoid compiler's warning):

The related warning (with allmodconfig under tile):

Taken into the tile tree, but I removed the now-redundant initialization
of err (shown above).

Thanks!
