Just to add a bit more context, this is inside this loop:

        mask = fpstate->user_xfeatures;
        for_each_extended_xfeature(i, mask) {
                if (zerofrom < xstate_offsets[i])
                        membuf_zero(&to, xstate_offsets[i] - zerofrom);
		...
	}
        if (to.left)
                membuf_zero(&to, to.left);

In other words, the loop and the surrounding code already know how to
membuf_zero() any gaps in the middle or the end of the user buffer.
Would it be simpler to just adjust the 'mask' over which the loop iterates?

I think that would end up being something like:

	 mask = fpstate->user_xfeatures &
		(xsave->xfeatures | xinit->xfeatures);

Logically, that makes sense too.  We're copying out of either 'xsave' or
'xinit'.  If a feature isn't in either one of those we can't do the
copy_feature() on it.
