Subject: [PATCH 3.10 102/319] arc: don't leak bits of kernel stack into coredump

From: Al Viro <viro@...iv.linux.org.uk>

commit 7798bf2140ebcc36eafec6a4194fffd8d585d471 upstream.

On faulting sigreturn we do get SIGSEGV, all right, but anything
we'd put into pt_regs could end up in the coredump.  And since
__copy_from_user() never zeroed on arc, we'd better bugger off
on its failure without copying random uninitialized bits of
kernel stack into pt_regs...
