Paolo, I did 32 bit kernel build tests

(1). w/ IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_X86_64)

if (!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_X86_64))
return -EINVAL;

This 32 bit kernel can successfully build.

(2). remove IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_X86_64)

The 32 bit kernel build is failed, and the error as:

ld: arch/x86/kernel/fpu/core.o: in function `fpu_enable_guest_xfd_features':
/root/amx/v5/kvm/arch/x86/kernel/fpu/core.c:278: undefined reference to `__xfd_enable_feature'

Seems we need define 32 bit API for __xfd_enable_feature().

I also tried (1) in desktop, but I could not reboot the machine after installed 32 bit kernel.

thanks a lot!

Yang
