Subject: [PATCH v3 3/4] x86/fpu: Fix __user annotations

In save_xstate_epilog(), use __user when type-casting userspace pointers.

In setup_sigcontext() and x32_setup_rt_frame(), cast the userspace
pointers to 'unsigned long __user *' before writing into them.
These pointers are originally '__u32 __user *' or '__u64 __user *',
causing sparse to complain when a userspace pointer is written into
them. The casts are okay because the pointers always point to
pointer-sized values.
Thanks to Luc Van Oostenryck and Al Viro for explaining this to me.
