The init_task instance of struct task_struct is statically allocated and
may not contain the full FP state for userspace. As such, limit the copy
to the valid area of both init_task and 'dst' and ensure all memory is
initialized.
Note that the FP state is only needed for userspace, and as such it is
entirely reasonable for init_task to not contain parts of it.
