[PATCH] x86/fpu: Replace vmalloc + copy_from_user with vmemdup_user in xstateregs_set
Posted by Thorsten Blum 2 weeks, 1 day ago
Replace vmalloc() followed by copy_from_user() with vmemdup_user() to
improve and simplify xstateregs_set(). Use kvfree() to free.

Return early if an error occurs and remove the obsolete 'out' label.

No functional changes intended.
