Move KVM's PKRU handling code in fpu_copy_uabi_to_guest_fpstate() to
copy_uabi_to_xstate() so that it is shared with other APIs that write the
XSTATE such as PTRACE_SETREGSET with NT_X86_XSTATE.
This restores the pre-5.14 behavior of ptrace. The regression can be seen
by running gdb and executing `p $pkru`, `set $pkru = 42`, and `p $pkru`.
On affected kernels (5.14+) the write to the PKRU register (which gdb
performs through ptrace) is ignored.
[ dhansen: removed stable@ tag for now. The ABI was broken for long
enough that this is not urgent material. Let's let it stew
in tip for a few weeks before it's submitted to stable
because there are so many ABIs potentially affected. ]

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.
