x86/fpu: Fix __user annotations



In save_xstate_epilog(), use __user when type-casting userspace
pointers.

In setup_sigcontext() and x32_setup_rt_frame(), cast the userspace
pointers to 'unsigned long __user *' before writing into them. These
pointers are originally '__u32 __user *' or '__u64 __user *', causing
sparse to complain when a userspace pointer is written into them. The
casts are okay because the pointers always point to pointer-sized
values.

Thanks to Luc Van Oostenryck and Al Viro for explaining this to me.
