This series adds support for the extended processor state (XSTATE) for
x86_64 UML, especially the YMM registers used by AVX/AVX2 instructions.

Modern userspace programs built with AVX can now run inside x86_64 UML
without YMM registers getting corrupted.

Eli Cooper (3):
  um: extend _fpstate to _xstate
  um: add extended processor state save/restore support
  um: fix ptrace PTRACE_GETFPREGS and PTRACE_SETFPREG support
