I have more questions to the above mentioned commit: why is it OK to
'return 0' from kvm_vcpu_ioctl_x86_set_xsave() without writing anything
to 'guest_xsave'? Same goes to kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_get_fpu(). Whould't
it be better to throw an error as we can't actually get this information
for encrypted guests? It's probably too late to change this now I
suppose ...
