SubjectRe: [PATCH] KVM: x86/xcr0: Don't make XFEATURE_MASK_SSE a mandatory bit setting

Is this a problem for xstate_required_size()? The rules for the CPUID
sub-functions <=1 are different than those for >1. Most importantly,
'eax' doesn't enumerate the size of the feature for the XFEATURE_SSE
sub-leaf.

I think XFEATURE_MASK_EXTEND was being used to avoid that oddity:
