Christophe Leroy b3484a1d4d powerpc/signal: Create 'unsafe' versions of copy_[ck][fpr/vsx]_to_user()
For the non VSX version, that's trivial. Just use unsafe_copy_to_user()
instead of __copy_to_user().

For the VSX version, remove the intermediate step through a buffer and
use unsafe_put_user() directly. This generates a far smaller code which
is acceptable to inline, see below:

Standard VSX version:

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.
