Florian Fainelli 0a98764567 um: Allow building and running on older hosts
Commit a78ff1112263 ("um: add extended processor state save/restore
support") and b6024b21fec8 ("um: extend fpstate to _xstate to support
YMM registers") forced the use of the x86 FP _xstate and
PTRACE_GETREGSET/SETREGSET. On older hosts, we would neither be able to
build UML nor run it anymore with these two commits applied because we
don't have definitions for struct _xstate nor these two ptrace requests.

We can determine at build time which fp context structure to check
against, just like we can keep using the old i387 fp save/restore if
PTRACE_GETRESET/SETREGSET are not defined.

Fixes: a78ff1112263 ("um: add extended processor state save/restore support")
Fixes: b6024b21fec8 ("um: extend fpstate to _xstate to support YMM registers")

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
