[PATCH v5 05/28] x86/fpu/xstate: Add a new variable to indicate dynamic user states

From: Chang S. Bae
Date: Sun May 23 2021 - 15:38:58 EST


The xstate per-task buffer is in preparation to be dynamic for user states.
Introduce a new mask variable to indicate the 'dynamic' user states. The
value is determined at boot-time.

The perf subsystem has a separate buffer to save some state only when
needed, not in every context switch. The states are named as 'dynamic'
supervisor states. Some define and helper are not named with dynamic
supervisor states, so rename them.

No functional change.
