Subject: [PATCH 09/15] x86, fpu: add helper xfeature_enabled() instead of test_bit()


From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@...ux.intel.com>

We currently use test_bit() in a few places to see if an xfeature
is enabled.  It ends up being a bit ugly because 'xfeatures_mask'
is a u64 and test_bit wants an 'unsigned long' so it requires a
cast.  The *_bit() functions are also techincally atomic, which
we have no need for here.

So, remove the test_bit()s and replace with the new
xfeature_enabled() helper.

This also provides a central place to add a comment about the
future need to support 'system xstates'.
