Two XCR0 bits are defined for AMX to support XSAVE mechanism. Bit 17 is for tilecfg and bit 18 is for tiledata.
The value of XCR0[17:18] is always either 00b or 11b.
Is that an SDM requirement, or an arbitrary Linux/KVM requirement?
SDM requirement
Also, SDM recommends that only 64-bit operating systems enable Intel AMX by setting XCR0[18:17]. If a 32-bit guest tries to set dynamic bits, it
This is wrong. It has nothing to do with 32-bit guests. The restriction is on 32-bit _host kernels_, which I'm guessing never set the tile bits in _host_ XCR0.
make sense.
fails to pass vcpu->arch.guest_supported_xcr0 check and gets a #GP.

Drop the #ifdef, it adds no meaningful value and requires the reader to think far harder than they should have. Yes, it's technically dead code for 32-bit KVM, but no one cares about performance of 32-bit KVM, and in any case it's extremely unlikely this will be anything but noise.
