[PATCH 0/1] x86/fpu: Follow up on the init_fpstate fix

["Chang S. Bae" <chang.seok.bae@intel.com>]

In short, the init_fpstate fix currently at tip's x86/urgent [6] is
incomplete for KVM. This patch follows up on that.

---

While these patches [1][2] attempt to fix the init fpstate, it results in a
fallout with KVM [3]:

The VCPU's XSAVE buffer is expanded at the time of VCPU setup [4] when any
dynamic feature is determined to be exposed via KVM_SET_CPUID.

Then, when the VCPU thread is executed [5], the xstate is copied to the
userspace via KVM_GET_XSAVE*. At the moment, the entire guest fpstate is in
init state.

But, init_fpstate has been incorrectly indicating the inclusion of
dynamic states. Subsequently, in the xstate copy loop, memory beyond the
init_fpstate looks to be referenced for the init states of dynamic
features.

The tip-merged series [1] fixes init_fpstate only. The xstate copy loop
remains to retrieve init_fpstate. Then, it will explode when a
dynamic-featured VCPU is about executed.

The included patch is to fix the copy function. It is based on the
x86/urgent branch [6].

Thanks,
Chang
