4.7-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Richard Weinberger <[email protected]>

commit 57a05d83b16710aff30510c33768df7ab17e0b4a upstream.

We are in atomic context and must not sleep.
Sleeping here is possible since malloc() maps
to kmalloc() with GFP_KERNEL.

Fixes: b6024b21 ("um: extend fpstate to _xstate to support YMM registers")
