Ok, here it is.

Ser, I'd appreciate you running it too, to make sure your box is still
ok.

Thx.

Subject: [PATCH] x86/fpu: Mask out the invalid MXCSR bits properly
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

This is a fix for the fix (yeah, /facepalm).

The correct mask to use is not the negation of the MXCSR_MASK but the
actual mask which contains the supported bits in the MXCSR register.

Reported and debugged by Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@...ux.intel.com>
