[PATCH v7 10/13] x86/um: nommu: signal handling

Hi,
I am not sure that fxsaveq/fxrstorq is guaranteed to be sufficient. I
don't think that catches some of the newer AVX registers for example.
At the same time, dealing with all that properly could be rather
annoying. I don't really have a solution for that, normal UM does not
need to deal with many of those details …
