That's neat, sure.

I'll move that comment up.

It's OK to do this to fstate_save/restore, and

it's also OK to do so to restore_d_state/save_d_state. But what to do with the
following __get_user/__put_user calls?

Can I rename existing restore_d_state to __restore_d_state, and create a new
function restore_d_state which includes the original restore_d_state/__get_user
pair, and the same to save_d_state?
