"in-line" doesn't fit in this context, especially since "inline"
is a keyword with another meaning. Please replace it with a better
formulation in this patch.

Is it time to group this into a struct so that all those settings go
together instead in single variables?

struct fpu_xstate {
	unsigned int min_size, max_size;
	unsigned int user_size;
	...
};

etc.

What's that move for?

And since we're probably going to start querying different aspects about
the buffer, instead of exporting all kinds of variables in the future,
maybe this should be a single exported function called

get_xstate_buffer_attr(typedef buffer_attr)

which gives you what you wanna know about it... For example:

get_xstate_buffer_attr(MIN_SIZE);
get_xstate_buffer_attr(MAX_SIZE);
...

<-- There's a comment over this function that might need adjustment.

using_compacted_format()

FPU code needs to agree on one helper and not use both. :-\
