Use the new fpu_user_cfg to retrieve the information instead of xfeatures_mask_uabi() which will be no longer correct when dynamically enabled features become available. Using fpu_user_cfg is appropriate when setting XCOMP_BV in the init_fpstate since it has space allocated for "max_features". But, normal fpstates might only have space for default xfeatures. Since XRSTOR* derives the format of the XSAVE buffer from XCOMP_BV, this can lead to XRSTOR reading out of bounds. So when copying actively used fpstate, simply read the XCOMP_BV features bits directly out of the fpstate instead.

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.
