Looks okay is meh... That other stuff obviously looked okay as well...

That FPU code is an unpenetrable mess.

The right solution is to just use copy_user_to_xstate() unconditionally.

That fixes the issue even without cleaning up that fpu_clear() mess
which we want to do nevertheless.

I have a similar fix for the related xstateregs_set() trainwreck, but
that really needs to allocate a buffer because it's operating on a
different task contrary to signal handling.

I'm too tired now to test the xstateregs_set() muck, but if you want to
have a look:
