Subject: [PATCH 4.4 63/74] MIPS: traps: Fix SIGFPE information leak from `do_ov and `do_trap_or_bp

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Maciej W. Rozycki <macro@...tec.com>

commit e723e3f7f9591b79e8c56b3d7c5a204a9c571b55 upstream.

Avoid sending a partially initialised `siginfo_t' structure along SIGFPE
signals issued from `do_ov' and `do_trap_or_bp', leading to information
leaking from the kernel stack.
