[PATCH v2 18/28] um: Store full CSGSFS and SS register from mcontext

From: Benjamin Berg <benjamin at sipsolutions.net>

Doing this allows using registers as retrieved from an mcontext to be
pushed to a process using PTRACE_SETREGS.

It is not entirely clear to me why CSGSFS was masked. Doing so creates
issues when using the mcontext as process state in seccomp and simply
copying the register appears to work perfectly fine for ptrace.
