There is no reason to do an extra XRSTOR from init_fpstate for feature bits which have been cleared by user space in the FX magic xfeatures storage. Just clear them in the task's XSTATE header and do a full restore which will put these cleared features into init state. There is no real difference in performance because the current code already does a full restore when the xfeatures bits are preserved as the signal frame setup has stored them, which is the full UABI feature set.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
