When xsave with init state optimization is used then a component's state in the task's xsave buffer can be stale when the corresponding feature bit is not set. fpregs_get() and xfpregs_get() invoke fpstate_sanitize_xstate() to update the task's xsave buffer before retrieving the FX or FP state. That's just duplicated code as copy_xstate_to_kernel() already handles this correctly. Add a copy mode argument to the function which allows to restrict the state copy to the FP and SSE features. Also rename the function to copy_xstate_to_uabi_buf() so the name reflects what it is doing.

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.
