Hi Chang, Thomas, Borislav,

"x86/fpu/signal: Prepare for variable sigframe length" has presumably
introduced an information leak to the userspace.

According to https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.16-rc2/source/arch/x86/ker=
nel/fpu/signal.c#L126,
save_sw_bytes() only initializes the first 20 bytes of sw_bytes, but
then the whole struct is copied to the userspace.

KMSAN report follows:
