x86/fpu/xstate: Fix inconsistencies in guest FPU xfeatures

Guest FPUs manage vCPU FPU states. They are allocated via
fpu_alloc_guest_fpstate() and are resized in fpstate_realloc() when XFD
features are enabled.

Since the introduction of guest FPUs, there have been inconsistencies in
the kernel buffer size and xfeatures:

1. fpu_alloc_guest_fpstate() uses fpu_user_cfg since its introduction. See:

69f6ed1d14c6 ("x86/fpu: Provide infrastructure for KVM FPU cleanup")
36487e6228c4 ("x86/fpu: Prepare guest FPU for dynamically enabled FPU features")

2. __fpstate_reset() references fpu_kernel_cfg to set storage attributes.

3. fpu->guest_perm uses fpu_kernel_cfg, affecting fpstate_realloc().

A recent commit in the tip:x86/fpu tree partially addressed the inconsistency
between (1) and (3) by using fpu_kernel_cfg for size calculation in (1),
but left fpu_guest->xfeatures and fpu_guest->perm still referencing
fpu_user_cfg:

1937e18cc3cf ("x86/fpu: Fix guest FPU state buffer allocation size")

The inconsistencies within fpu_alloc_guest_fpstate() and across the
mentioned functions cause confusion.

Fix them by using fpu_kernel_cfg consistently in fpu_alloc_guest_fpstate(),
except for fields related to the UABI buffer. Referencing fpu_kernel_cfg
won't impact functionalities, as:

1. fpu_guest->perm is overwritten shortly in fpu_init_guest_permissions()
with fpstate->guest_perm, which already uses fpu_kernel_cfg.

2. fpu_guest->xfeatures is solely used to check if XFD features are enabled.
Including supervisor xfeatures doesn't affect the check.
