[PATCH 0/2] selftest/x86: AMX CPU state management tests

[Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com>]

Intel Advanced Matrix Extensions (AMX) are a new set registers
and ISA.  They are conceptually similar to the earlier AVX and
SSE ISA.  But, the registers as a whole are *really* big: ~8k
verus 2k for AVX-512.

Those amply-sized registers present some potential problems with
task_struct and signal stack bloat.  To fix those issues, most of
the new AMX state is dynamically allocated with the help of a new
CPU feature.

This new selftest exercises the new dynamic allocation ABI and
also ensures that AMX state is properly context-switched.

Processors that support AMX (Sapphire Rapids) are not publicly
available.  The kernel support needed to run these tests is not
upstream.  This selftest was developed against this tree:

	https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tglx/devel.git/log/?h=x86/fpu

These tests were primarily written by Chang Bae.  He's busy
working on the real kernel support, so I stole these and cleaned
them up a bit.
