But, I think there is a fallout that someone should follow up:

The merged patch ensures size consistency between 
fpu_alloc_guest_fpstate() and fpstate_realloc(), maintaining a 
consistent reference to the kernel buffer size. However, within 
fpu_alloc_guest_fpstate(), fpu_guest->xfeatures should also be adjusted 
accordingly for consistency. Instead of referencing fpu_user_cfg, it 
should reference fpu_kernel_cfg.

Thanks,
