XSAVES is a kernel-mode instruction. It offers a compacted format and
memory-write optimization. These patches fix issues in the first
implementation.

Changes since Version 5:

Patch 1, 2 - Change names to fpu_user_xstate_size and fpu_kernel_xstate_size;
             fix some comments, etc.

Patch 11 - In addition to a warning, make __raw_xsave_addr() return NULL
           when a disabled xstate component address is requested.

Patch 12 - Add more details in the comments of why this patch is needed;
           make a new macro for xcomp_bv[63].

Yu-cheng Yu (13):
  x86/xsaves: Define and use fpu_user_xstate_size
  x86/xsaves: Rename xstate_size to fpu_kernel_xstate_size to
    distinguish from fpu_user_xstate_size
  x86/xsaves: Keep init_fpstate.xsave.header.xfeatures as zero for init
    optimization
  x86/xsaves: Introduce a new check that allows correct xstates copy
    from kernel to user directly
  x86/xsaves: Align xstate components according to CPUID
  x86/xsaves: Supervisor state component offset
  x86/xsaves: Fix PTRACE frames for XSAVES
  x86/xsaves: Fix XSTATE component offset print out
  x86/xsaves: Fix xstate_offsets, xstate_sizes for non-extended states
  x86/xsaves: Fix __fpu_restore_sig() for XSAVES
  x86/xsaves: When a disabled xstate component offset is requested,
    return NULL
  x86/xsaves: Fix fpstate_init() for XRSTORS
  x86/xsaves: Re-enable XSAVES
