There is no fix (Fixes: ...) here, right? I think this change is needed
to make sure KVM guests can support supervisor features. But KVM CET
support (to follow in future patches) will be the first one, right?

The side effect will be that KVM guest FPUs now get guaranteed room for
PASID as well as CET. I think I remember you mentioned that due to
alignment requirements, there shouldn't usually be any size change
though? It might be nice to add that in the log, if I'm remembering
correctly.
