Commit c1445db9f72db0537c43a2eab6e1b0f6741162f5 unexported asm/user.h
(and linux/user.h):
Author: Kirill A. Shutemov <k.shutemov@gmail.com>

Unexport asm/user.h and linux/user.h
Do not export asm/user.h and linux/user.h during make
headers_install.
As far as I can see, this renders PTRACE_[SG]ETFPREGS and
PTRACE_[SG]ETFPXREGS unusable, as userspace has no way to figure out
what size buffer to pass in.
I think we either need to make user_i387_struct and user_fxsr_struct
available someplace else, or re-export user.h.
