Benjamin Berg 1ca1443570 um: Rely on PTRACE_SETREGSET to set FS/GS base registers
These registers are saved/restored together with the other general
registers using ptrace. In arch_set_tls we then just need to set the
register and it will be synced back normally.

Most of this logic was introduced in commit f355559cf7 ("[PATCH] uml:
x86_64 thread fixes"). However, at least today we can rely on ptrace to
restore the base registers for us. As such, only the part of the patch
that tracks the FS register for use as thread local storage is actually
needed.

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.
