It seems like an appropriate value, but where does this come into play
exactly for guest FPUs?

I don't see there's special usage of this field for vCPU in VMM userspace(QEMU).
Maybe it's mainly for AMX resulted usespace fault handling? For vCPU thread,
it's only  referenced when AMX is enabled via __xfd_enable_feature() .
