We probably can.   After introducing a kernel_compat_siginfo that is
the size that userspace actually would need.

It isn't something I want to mess with until this code gets merged, as I
think the set_fs cleanups are more important.


Christoph made some good points about how ugly the #ifdefs are in
the generic copy_siginfo_to_user32 implementation.

Take a look at the series you are replying to, the magic x86 ifdefs are
entirely gone from the common code :)

Interesting.

That is a different way of achieving that, and I don't hate it.
  
I still want whatever you are doing to settle before I touch that code
again.  Removing the set_fs is important and I have other fish to fry
at the moment.
