Please call ctxt->ops->put_fpu() before returning.
(Don't be afraid to use 'goto', the will likely be more of them.)

This should be the size of first 8 XMM registers, but xmm_space is of
type u32, so the correct size is
  xmm_space[8 * 16/sizeof(*fx_state.xmm_space)].

Adding a separate function to compute the size and call it from
em_fxrstor and em_fxsave would make sense at this point.

Good idea.  check_fxsr() doesn't allow X86EMUL_MODE_PROT64 and the
condition was an artefact from older iterations.

I'll refresh the kvm-unit-test ([kvm-unit-tests PATCH] x86: realmode:
add FXSR tests).
