[PATCH v3 11/13] KVM: selftests: x86: Remove redundant check that XSAVE is supported

From: Mingwei Zhang
Date: Tue Feb 21 2023 - 11:38:24 EST


From: Aaron Lewis <aaronlewis@xxxxxxxxxx>

In amx_test, userspace requires that XSAVE is supported before running
the test, then the guest checks that it is supported after enabling
AMX. Remove the redundant check in the guest that XSAVE is supported.

Opportunistically, move the check that OSXSAVE is set to immediately
after the guest sets it, rather than in a separate helper.
