Thanks for fixing this. I had been reliably hitting that fpu state splat
since 5.18-rc1 with fstests, and was annoying because it made a few tests
fail (fstests reports a failure whenever there's a splat or warning in
dmesg).

I confirm that with this patchset applied the issue no longer happens and
everything seems to be working fine, so:
