[Xen-devel] [PATCH] x86: refine FPU selector handling code for XSAVEOPT

["Jan Beulich" <JBeulich@xxxxxxxx>]

Some extra tweaks are necessary to deal with the situation of XSAVEOPT
not writing the FPU portion of the save image (due to it detecting that
the register state did not get modified since the last XRSTOR).
