[PATCH 5.17 0120/1126] arm64: signal: nofpsimd: Do not allocate fp/simd context when not available

From: David Engraf <david.engraf@sysgo.com>

commit 0a32c88ddb9af30e8a16d41d7b9b824c27d29459 upstream.

Commit 6d502b6ba1b2 ("arm64: signal: nofpsimd: Handle fp/simd context for
signal frames") introduced saving the fp/simd context for signal handling
only when support is available. But setup_sigframe_layout() always
reserves memory for fp/simd context. The additional memory is not touched
because preserve_fpsimd_context() is not called and thus the magic is
invalid.

This may lead to an error when parse_user_sigframe() checks the fp/simd
area and does not find a valid magic number.
