I think we should call kvm_put_guest_fpu() before doing this.
The register might be loaded in CPU and XSAVE instruction from
vcpu_put() would overwrite any changes we did.

XFEATURE_MASK_BNDCSR is actually

struct mpx_bndcsr {
u64 bndcfgu;
u64 bndstatus;
} __packed;

So clearing two u64 would be correct, thanks.
