Subject: [PATCH 00/23] x86: Support Intel Advanced Matrix Extensions (part 4)

This is the last part of the effort to support AMX. This series follows the
KVM part:
    https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20211017151447.829495362@linutronix.de/

With AMX the FPU register state buffer which is part of
task_struct::thread::fpu is not going to be extended unconditionally for
all tasks on an AMX enabled system as that would waste minimum 8K per task.

AMX provides a mechanism to trap on first use. That trap will be utilized
to allocate a larger register state buffer when the task (process) has
permissions to use it. The default buffer task_struct will only carry
states up to AVX512.

The cost of XFD switching only matters for an AMX-enabled system. With the
cleanup of the KVM FPU handling, host-side XFD/AMX is completely
independent of guest-side XFD/AMX.

The per-task feature and size information helps to support dynamic features
organically compared to the old versions.

Each task has a unique sigframe length with dynamic features. sigaltstack()
has a new size checker to support a per-task sigframe size.

This version also fixes the syscall implementation and the XFD state
switching on hot paths.

Here is a summary of patches:

  - At first, add arch-specific sigaltstack size check

  - Establish a set of new syscalls to control dynamic XSTATE components

  - Update infrastructure to prepare dynamic features

  - Support XFD state and switching, and add buffer reallocation helpers

  - Finally, enable AMX with XFD #NM handling

This series is based on:

    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tglx/devel.git x86/fpu-3-kvm

and a revision of the version in the tglx tree -- some bug fixes, polish,
and addressing Dave Hansen's feedback (noted on each patch):

    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tglx/devel.git x86/fpu

This comes with a large selftest suite which is going to be posted
separately. A preview along with the full series is available here:
