Signal frames do not have a fixed format and can vary in size when a number of things change: support XSAVE features, 32 vs. 64-bit apps. Add the code to support a runtime method for userspace to dynamically discover how large a signal stack needs to be. Introduce a new variable, max_frame_size, and helper functions for the calculation to be used in a new user interface. Set max_frame_size to a system-wide worst-case value, instead of storing multiple app-specific values. Locate the body of the helper function -- fpu__get_fpstate_sigframe_size() in fpu/signal.c for its relevance.
This sentence is strange and not needed.

Those are defined here to be used in only one place - init_sigframe_size() - where there already is ifdeffery. Just use the normal sizeof() operator there instead of adding more gunk here.

I guess this can be simplified to:
unsigned long fpu__get_fpstate_sigframe_size(void)
{
unsigned long ret = xstate_sigframe_size();
/*
* This space is needed on (most) 32-bit kernels, or when a 32-bit

*/
if ((IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION) ||
IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_X86_32)) && use_fxsr())
ret += sizeof(struct fregs_state);
return ret;
}
Also, this function simply gives you the xstate size, there's no need
for "sigframe" in the name.
