My recent patch to split pt_regs between user and kernel missed
the usage in struct sigcontext.
Because this is a user visible struct it should be using the user
visible definition, which when we're building for the kernel is called
struct user_pt_regs.
As far as I can see this hasn't actually caused a bug (yet), because
we don't use the sizeof() the sigcontext->regs anywhere. But we should
still fix it to avoid confusion and future bugs.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
