[RFC PATCH 08/22] x86/fpu/xstate: Define the scope of the initial xstate data

From: Chang S. Bae
Date: Thu Oct 01 2020 - 16:43:07 EST


init_fpstate covers all the component states. But it becomes less efficient
to do this as the state size trends larger but with trivial initial data.

Limit init_fpstate by clarifying its size and coverage, which are all but
dynamic user states. The dynamic states are assumed to be large but having
initial data with zeros.

No functional change until the kernel supports dynamic user states.
