[PATCH v6 06/26] x86/fpu/xstate: Calculate and remember dynamic XSTATE buffer sizes

From: Chang S. Bae
Date: Wed Jun 30 2021 - 02:09:06 EST


The XSTATE per-task buffer is currently embedded into struct fpu with
static size. To accommodate dynamic user XSTATEs, record the maximum and
minimum buffer sizes.

Rename the size calculation function. It calculates the maximum XSTATE size
and sanity checks it with CPUID. It also calculates the static embedded
buffer size by excluding the dynamic user states from the maximum size.

Changes from v5:
* Re-adjusted some local variable names.

Changes from v4:
* Massaged the function description, in preparation for the change
with a return value.

Changes from v3:
* Updated the changelog. (Borislav Petkov)
* Updated the code comment. (Borislav Petkov)
* Adjusted the calculation function naming.
* Moved out the new variable addition into a new patch.

Changes from v2:
* Updated the changelog with task->fpu removed. (Borislav Petkov)
* Renamed the in-line size variable.
* Updated some code comments.
