In preparation for FORTIFY_SOURCE performing compile-time and run-time

Add a struct_group() for the spe registers so that memset() can correctly reason
about the size:

This makes me nervous, because the ABI is that we copy ELF_NEVRREG *
sizeof(u32) bytes, not whatever sizeof(current->thread.spe) happens to
be.

ie. if we use sizeof an inadvertent change to the fields in
thread_struct could change how many bytes we copy out to userspace,
which would be an ABI break.

And that's not that hard to do, because it's not at all obvious that the
size and layout of fields in thread_struct affects the user ABI.

At the same time we don't want to copy the right number of bytes but
the wrong content, so from that point of view using sizeof is good :)

The way we handle it in ptrace is to have BUILD_BUG_ON()s to verify that
things match up, so maybe we should do that here too.

ie. add:

	BUILD_BUG_ON(sizeof(current->thread.spe) == ELF_NEVRREG * sizeof(u32));

You mean != I guess ?




Not sure if you are happy doing that as part of this patch. I can always
do it later if not.

cheers
