copy_regset_to_user(): do all copyout at once.
Turn copy_regset_to_user() into regset_get_alloc() + copy_to_user(). Now all ->get() calls have a kernel buffer as destination. Note that we'd already eliminated the callers of copy_regset_to_user() with non-zero offset; now that argument is simply unused. Uninlined, while we are at it.
