Currently, saving register states in the signal frame, the legacy feature
bits are always set in xregs_state->header->xfeatures. This code sequence
can be generalized for reuse in similar cases.
Refactor the logic to ensure a consistent approach across similar usages.

Commit ae6012d72fa6 ("x86/pkeys: Ensure updated PKRU value is XRSTOR'd")
modified the signal delivery logic to always set the PKRU bit in
xregs_state->header->xfeatures.
The change currently derives the bitmask value using XGETBV(1), rather
than reading the already written value directly from the buffer. Thus,
this approach induces an unnecessary dependency on XGETBV1 for the PKRU
feature.
Eliminate the dependency by using the established helper function.
Subsequently, remove the unused mask argument from
update_pkru_in_sigframe().
