Always intercepting IA32_XFD causes non-negligible overhead when this register is updated frequently in the guest. Disable r/w emulation after intercepting the first WRMSR(IA32_XFD) with a non-zero value. Disable WRMSR emulation implies that IA32_XFD becomes out-of-sync with the software states in fpstate and the per-cpu xfd cache. This leads to two additional changes accordingly: - Call fpu_sync_guest_vmexit_xfd_state() after vm-exit to bring software states back in-sync with the MSR, before handle_exit_irqoff() is called. - Always trap #NM once write interception is disabled for IA32_XFD. The #NM exception is rare if the guest doesn't use dynamic features. Otherwise, there is at most one exception per guest task given a dynamic feature. p.s. We have confirmed that SDM is being revised to say that when setting IA32_XFD[18] the AMX register state is not guaranteed to be preserved. This clarification avoids adding mess for a creative guest which sets IA32_XFD[18]=1 before saving active AMX state to its own storage.
