         resources created; otherwise racing lvm2 commands could result in a
         NULL pointer during initialization of associated DM kernel module.

      arm64: fpsimd: Fix copying of FP state from signal frame into task struct · a4544831
      Will Deacon authored
      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.
