So far the cached fixed compacted offsets worked, but with (re-)enabling
of ENQCMD this does no longer work with KVM fpstate.
KVM does not have supervisor features enabled for the guest FPU, which
means that KVM has then a different XSAVE area layout than the host FPU
state. This in turn breaks the copy from/to UABI functions when invoked for
a guest state.
Remove the pre-calculated compacted offsets and calculate the offset
of each component at runtime based on the XCOMP_BV field in the XSAVE
header.
The runtime overhead is not interesting because these copy from/to UABI
functions are not used in critical fast paths. KVM uses them to save and
restore FPU state during migration. The host uses them for ptrace and for
the slow path of 32bit signal handling.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
