Subject: [PATCH 4.4 33/42] arm64/ptrace: Avoid uninitialised struct padding in fpr_set()

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

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

From: Dave Martin <Dave.Martin@....com>

commit aeb1f39d814b2e21e5e5706a48834bfd553d0059 upstream.

This patch adds an explicit __reserved[] field to user_fpsimd_state
to replace what was previously unnamed padding.

This ensures that data in this region are propagated across
assignment rather than being left possibly uninitialised at the
destination.

Fixes: 60ffc30d5652 ("arm64: Exception handling")
