Independent of that, this is finicky enough and has enough
kernel-interface implications that I think it had better have
architecture maintainer reviews for, at least, all architectures where
you copied the contents of struct sigcontext into the definition of
mcontext_t.

Ping for
architecture maintainers for aarch64, alpha, hppa, ia64, microblaze, tile.

Ping again, both architecture-maintainer and general patch.  (Note email
to the microblaze maintainer bounced.)  All the other fixes for this bug
are now in, so this patch allows 11 of the 13 miscellaneous conform/
XFAILs to be removed (and the other two are just ordinary bugs about the
details of what's exposed for particular old standard versions).


The tile architecture version looks good to me.
