Add a helper, kvm_get_filtered_xcr0(), to dedup code that needs to account for XCR0 features that require explicit opt-in on a per-process basis. In addition to documenting when KVM should/shouldn't consult xstate_get_guest_group_perm(), the helper will also allow sanitizing the filtered XCR0 to avoid enumerating architecturally illegal XCR0 values, e.g. XTILE_CFG without XTILE_DATA. No functional changes intended.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
