Subject: [PATCH 2/2] x86/fpu: factor out memset(xstate, 0) in fpu_finit() paths
Date: Mon, 2 Mar 2015 19:32:57 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150302183257.GC23085@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20150302183210.GA23085@redhat.com>

fx_finit() has 2 users but only fpu_finit() needs to nullify xstate,
alloc_bootmem_align() in setup_init_fpu_buf() returns zero-filled
memory.

And note that both memset()'s look confusing. Yes, offsetof() is 0
for ->fxsave or ->fsave, but it would be more clean to turn them into
a single memset() which nullifies fpu->state.
