NAK.
MSR_IA32_XFD_ERR needs to be wired up in the exception handler, not in
some helper called farther down the stack
But this raises an interesting point -- what happens if allocation
fails? I think that, from kernel code, we simply cannot support this
exception mechanism. If kernel code wants to use AMX (and that would
be very strange indeed), it should call x86_i_am_crazy_amx_begin() and
handle errors, not rely on exceptions. From user code, I assume we
send a signal if allocation fails.
