Let's try this: it boots in a VM so it should be good. I had to remove some of the newly added XSTATE states. tglx, can you have a quick look pls?
Anyone still want this???
Cool, this works for 4.4.y, but what about 4.9.y, 4.14.y, 4.19.y, and 5.4.y? Your proposed patch here blows up the build on all of those other branches.
thanks,
