Why MSR_IA32_S_CET is not included here?

Is it better to do?

static bool is_xstate_managed_msr(u32 index)
{
          if (!kvm_caps.supported_xss)
                  return false;

          switch (index) {
          case MSR_IA32_U_CET:
          case MSR_IA32_S_CET:
          case MSR_IA32_PL1_SSP ... MSR_IA32_PL3_SSP:
                  return kvm_caps.supported_xss & XFEATURE_MASK_CET_USER &&
                         kvm_caps.supported_xss & XFEATURE_MASK_CET_KERNEL;
          default:
                  return false;
          }
}

And it would be obvious how to add new MSRs related to other XFEATURE bits.

Thanks!
