struct pt_regs is used to access both kernel and user exception frames.
User exception frames may contain up to XCHAL_NUM_AREG registers that
task creation and signal delivery code may access, but pt_regs::areg
array has only 16 entries that cover only the kernel exception frame.
This results in the following build error:
arch/xtensa/kernel/process.c: In function 'copy_thread':
arch/xtensa/kernel/process.c:262:52: error: array subscript 53 is above
array bounds of 'long unsigned int[16]' [-Werror=array-bounds]
262 | put_user(regs->areg[caller_ars+1],
Change struct pt_regs::areg size to XCHAL_NUM_AREGS so that it covers
the whole user exception frame. Adjust task_pt_regs and drop additional
register copying code from copy_thread now that the whole user exception
stack frame is copied.

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.
