I still don't understand why this is being called DYNAMIC. CET_SS isn't dynamic,
as KVM is _always_ allowed to save/restore CET_SS, i.e. whether or not KVM can
expose CET_SS to a guest is a static, boot-time decision. Whether or not a guest
XSS actually enables CET_SS is "dynamic", but that's true of literally every
xfeature in XCR0 and XSS.
XFEATURE_MASK_XTILE_DATA is labeled as dynamic because userspace has to explicitly
request that XTILE_DATA be enabled, and thus whether or not KVM is allowed to
expose XTILE_DATA to the guest is a dynamic, runtime decision.
So IMO, the umbrella macro should be XFEATURE_MASK_KERNEL_GUEST_ONLY.
