I did these out of order since I had 5.3.11 built with the patch, ready to go 
for weeks now, waiting for an opportunity to test.

Win10 guest immediately BSOD'ed with:

WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 9296 at include/linux/thread_info.h:55 
kernel_fpu_begin+0x6b/0xc0

Then stashed the patch, reverted ca7e6b286333, compile, reboot.

Guest is running stable now on 5.3.11. Did test my CAD under the guest, did not 
experience the crashes that had me stuck at 5.1.
