Subject: [PATCH] x86 user_regset_view table fix for ia32 on 64-bit

The user_regset_view table for the 32-bit regsets on the 64-bit build had
the wrong sizes for the FP regsets.  This bug had no user-visible effect
(just on kernel modules using the user_regset interfaces and the like).
But the fix is trivial and risk-free.
