Commit 9de52a75 ("arm64: fpsimd: Fix failure to restore FPSIMD state after signals") fixed an issue reported in our FPSIMD signal restore code but inadvertently introduced another issue which tends to manifest as random SEGVs in userspace. The problem is that when we copy the struct fpsimd_state from the kernel stack (populated from the signal frame) into the struct held in the current thread_struct, we blindly copy uninitialised stack into the "cpu" field, which means that context-switching of the FP registers is no longer reliable. This patch fixes the problem by copying only the user_fpsimd member of struct fpsimd_state. We should really rework the function prototypes to take struct user_fpsimd_state * instead, but let's just get this fixed for now.
