+Subject: [PATCH] x86/fpu: Fix invalid FPU ptrace state after execve()
+
+commit b22cbe404a9cc3c7949e380fa1861e31934c8978 upstream.
+
+Robert O'Callahan reported that after an execve PTRACE_GETREGSET
+NT_X86_XSTATE continues to return the pre-exec register values
+until the exec'ed task modifies FPU state.
+
+The test code is at:
+
+ https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=1164286.
+
+What is happening is fpu__clear() does not properly clear fpstate.
+Fix it by doing just that.
