x86, ptrace: Simplify xstateregs_get()
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.
