Subject: x86/fpu: Set the xcomp_bv when we fake up a XSAVES area

From: Kevin Hao <haokexin@xxxxxxxxx>


[ Upstream commit 4c833368f0bf748d4147bf301b1f95bc8eccb3c0 ]

I got the following calltrace on a Apollo Lake SoC with 32-bit kernel:

  WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 261 at arch/x86/include/asm/fpu/internal.h:363 fpu__restore+0x1f5/0x260
  [...]
  Hardware name: Intel Corp. Broxton P/NOTEBOOK, BIOS APLIRVPA.X64.0138.B35.1608091058 08/09/2016
  Call Trace:
   dump_stack()
   __warn()
   ? fpu__restore()
   warn_slowpath_null()
   fpu__restore()
   __fpu__restore_sig()
   fpu__restore_sig()
   restore_sigcontext.isra.9()
   sys_sigreturn()
   do_int80_syscall_32()
   entry_INT80_32()

The reason is that a #GP occurs when executing XRSTORS. The root cause
is that we forget to set the xcomp_bv when we fake up the XSAVES area
in the copyin_to_xsaves() function.
