Seems Dave strongly dislikes inlining the helpers

>Passing in '0' and setting xfd in __guest_fpstate_reset() is especially pointless.

Agreed.

Giving Dave's feedback, how about tweaking __fpstate_reset() for guest FPUs:

Subject: [PATCH] x86/fpu: Initialize guest fpstate and FPU pseudo container
 from guest defaults

fpu_alloc_guest_fpstate() currently uses host defaults to initialize guest
fpstate and pseudo containers. Guest defaults were introduced to
differentiate the features and sizes of host and guest FPUs. Switch to
using guest defaults instead.

Adjust __fpstate_reset() to handle different defaults for host and guest
FPUs. And to distinguish between the types of FPUs, move the initialization
of indicators (is_guest and is_valloc) before the reset.
