x86/process/64: Use FSGSBASE instructions on thread copy and ptrace
When FSGSBASE is enabled, copying threads and reading fsbase and gsbase using ptrace must read the actual values. When copying a thread, use save_fsgs() and copy the saved values. For ptrace, the bases must be read from memory regardless of the selector if FSGSBASE is enabled.

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.
