This is done lazily.  The SPE save will be done only if the guest has

For SPEFSCR, Linux already switches it on context switch (non-lazily), so
the only remaining bit is to save it between qemu and the guest.

Looks good to me now. Please resend the whole patchset once you have real acks from Kumar, and include those in the commit message.
