48 bytes (bytes 464..511) of the xstateregs payload come from the
kernel defined structure (xstate_fx_sw_bytes). Rest comes from the
xstate regs structure in the thread struct. Instead of having multiple
user_regset_copyout()'s, simplify the xstateregs_get() by first
copying the SW bytes into the xstate regs structure in the thread structure
and then using one user_regset_copyout() to copyout the xstateregs.
