Strictly speaking, there is a functional change. in the previous logic, if
either of BNDCSR or BNDREGS state is not supported (kvm_mpx_supported() will
return false), KVM won't reset either of them. Since this gets changed, I vote
to drop 'No functional change ..'

kvm_vcpu_has_xstate is a misnomer because it doesn't take a vCPU.

The kvm_vcpu_has_xstate() check is superfluous because @i is derived from
kvm_caps.supported_xcr0/xss, which already guarantees that all unsupported
xfeatures are filtered out.

I recommend dropping this check. w/ this change,
