David Engraf 7ce550a01b arm64: signal: nofpsimd: Do not allocate fp/simd context when not available
commit 0a32c88ddb9af30e8a16d41d7b9b824c27d29459 upstream.

Commit 6d502b6ba1b2 ("arm64: signal: nofpsimd: Handle fp/simd context for
signal frames") introduced saving the fp/simd context for signal handling
only when support is available. But setup_sigframe_layout() always
reserves memory for fp/simd context. The additional memory is not touched
because preserve_fpsimd_context() is not called and thus the magic is
invalid.

This may lead to an error when parse_user_sigframe() checks the fp/simd
area and does not find a valid magic number.

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.
