Sebastian Andrzej Siewior aab8445c4e x86/fpu: Update kernel's FPU state before using for the fsave header
In commit

  39388e80f9 ("x86/fpu: Don't save fxregs for ia32 frames in copy_fpstate_to_sigframe()")

I removed the statement

|       if (ia32_fxstate)
|               copy_fxregs_to_kernel(fpu);

and argued that it was wrongly merged because the content was already
saved in kernel's state.

This was wrong: It is required to write it back because it is only
saved on the user-stack and save_fsave_header() reads it from task's
FPU-state. I missed that part…

Save x87 FPU state unless thread's FPU registers are already up to date.

Fixes: 39388e80f9 ("x86/fpu: Don't save fxregs for ia32 frames in copy_fpstate_to_sigframe()")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
