regset: new method and helpers for it

->regset_get() takes task+regset+buffer, returns the amount of free space
left in the buffer on success and -E... on error.

buffer is represented as struct membuf - a pair of (kernel) pointer
and amount of space left

Primitives for writing to such:
* membuf_write(buf, data, size)
* membuf_zero(buf, size)
* membuf_store(buf, value)

These are implemented as inlines (in case of membuf_store - a macro).
All writes are sequential; they become no-ops when there's no space
left. Return value of all primitives is the amount of space left
after the operation, so they can be used as return values of ->regset_get().

Example of use:

// stores pt_regs of task + 64 bytes worth of zeroes + 32bit PID of task
int foo_get(struct task_struct *task, const struct regset *regset,
struct membuf to)
{
membuf_write(&to, task_pt_regs(task), sizeof(struct pt_regs));
membuf_zero(&to, 64);
return membuf_store(&to, (u32)task_tgid_vnr(task));
}

regset_get()/regset_get_alloc() taught to use that thing if present.
By the end of the series all users of ->get() will be converted;
then ->get() and ->get_size() can go.

Note that unlike ->get() this thing always starts at offset 0 and,
since it only writes to kernel buffer, can't fail on copyout.
It can, of course, fail for other reasons, but those tend to
be less numerous.

The caller guarantees that the buffer size won't be bigger than
regset->n * regset->size. That simplifies life for quite a few
instances.

copy_regset_to_user(): do all copyout at once.

Turn copy_regset_to_user() into regset_get_alloc() + copy_to_user().
Now all ->get() calls have a kernel buffer as destination.

Note that we'd already eliminated the callers of copy_regset_to_user()
with non-zero offset; now that argument is simply unused.

Uninlined, while we are at it.

introduction of regset ->get() wrappers, switching ELF coredumps to those

Two new helpers: given a process and regset, dump into a buffer.
regset_get() takes a buffer and size, regset_get_alloc() takes size
and allocates a buffer.

Return value in both cases is the amount of data actually dumped in
case of success or -E... on error.

In both cases the size is capped by regset->n * regset->size, so
->get() is called with offset 0 and size no more than what regset
expects.

binfmt_elf.c callers of ->get() are switched to using those; the other
caller (copy_regset_to_user()) will need some preparations to switch.
