Kees Cook f7d83c1cf3 x86: Implement thread_struct whitelist for hardened usercopy
This whitelists the FPU register state portion of the thread_struct for
copying to userspace, instead of the default entire struct. This is needed
because FPU register state is dynamically sized, so it doesn't bypass the
hardened usercopy checks.

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
