[PATCH] fpu: xstate: Keep xfd_state always in-sync with IA32_XFD MSR

[Adamos Ttofari]

Commit 672365477ae8 ("x86/fpu: Update XFD state where required") and
commit 8bf26758ca96 ("x86/fpu: Add XFD state to fpstate") introduced a
per_cpu variable xfd_state to keep the IA32_XFD MSR value cached. In
order to avoid unnecessary writes to the MSR.

xfd_state might not be always synced with the MSR. Eventually affecting
MSR writes. xfd_state is initialized with 0, meanwhile the MSR is
initialized with the XFEATURE_MASK_USER_DYNAMIC to make XFD fire. Then
later on reschedule to a different CPU, when a process that uses extended
xfeatures and handled the #NM (by allocating the additional space in task's
fpstate for extended xfeatures) it will skip the MSR update in
restore_fpregs_from_fpstate because the value might match to already cached
xfd_state (meanwhile it is not the same with the MSR). Eventually calling a
XRSTOR to set the new state (that caries extended xfeatures) and fire a #NM
from kernel context. The XFD is expected to fire from user-space context,
but not in this case and the kernel crashes.

To address the issue mentioned initialize xfd_state with the current MSR
value and update the XFD MSR always with xfd_update_state to avoid
un-sync cases.
