s390/fpu: get rid of test_fp_ctl()
It is quite subtle to use test_fp_ctl() correctly. Therefore remove it - instead copy whatever new floating point control (fpc) register values are supposed to be used into its save area. Test the validity of the new value when loading it. If the new value is invalid, load the fpc register with zero. This seems to be a the best way to approach this problem. Even though this changes behavior: - sigreturn with an invalid fpc value on the stack will succeed, and continue with zero value, instead of returning with SIGSEGV - ptraced processes will also use a zero value instead of letting the request fail with -EINVAL However all of this seems to acceptable. After all testing of the value was only implemented to avoid that user space can crash the kernel. It is not there to test values for validity; and the assumption is that there is no existing user space which is doing this.
