Ah, right, I keep forgetting that KVM's ABI can't use XRSTOR because it forces
the compacted format.

This part still looks odd to me:

	gfpu->xfeatures		= fpu_user_cfg.default_features;
	gfpu->perm		= fpu_user_cfg.default_features;

but I'm probably just not understanding something in the other patches changes yet.
