x86: switch to ->regset_get()

All instances of ->get() in arch/x86 switched; that might or might
not be worth splitting up. Notes:

* for xstateregs_get() the amount we want to store is determined at
the boot time; see init_xstate_size() and update_regset_xstate_info() for
details. task->thread.fpu.state.xsave ends with a flexible array member and
the amount of data in it depends upon the FPU features supported/enabled.

* fpregs_get() writes slightly less than full ->thread.fpu.state.fsave
(the last word is not copied); we pass the full size of state.fsave and let
membuf_write() trim to the amount declared by regset - __regset_get() will
make sure that the space in buffer is no more than that.

* copy_xstate_to_user() and its helpers are gone now.

* fpregs_soft_get() was getting user_regset_copyout() arguments
wrong. Since "x86: x86 user_regset math_emu" back in 2008... I really
doubt that it's worth splitting out for -stable, though - you need
a 486SX box for that to trigger...

[Kevin's braino fix for copy_xstate_to_kernel() essentially duplicated here]
