do you mean kvm_caps.supported_xss by "the result"? I don't see how
fpu_swap_kvm_fpstate() uses kvm_caps.supported_xss.

The wording is not accurate, what I meant is : the resulting bits are supported by

fpu_swap_kvm_fpstate(). I will change the commit logs in next version, thanks!

AMD has the same statement. Do you need to remove that one?

Since it appears in svm.c, so I assume Allen(AMD) will change it

in his following up patch series.
