There are two distinct CPU features related to the use of XSAVES and LBR: whether LBR is itself supported and whether XSAVES supports LBR. The LBR subsystem correctly checks both in intel_pmu_arch_lbr_init(), but the XSTATE subsystem does not. The LBR bit is only removed from xfeatures_mask_independent when LBR is not supported by the CPU, but there is no validation of XSTATE support. If XSAVES does not support LBR the write to IA32_XSS causes a #GP fault, leaving the state of IA32_XSS unchanged, i.e. zero. The fault is handled with a warning and the boot continues. Consequently the next XRSTORS which tries to restore supervisor state fails with #GP because the RFBM has zero for all supervisor features, which does not match the XCOMP_BV field. As XFEATURE_MASK_FPSTATE includes supervisor features setting up the FPU causes a #GP, which ends up in fpu_reset_from_exception_fixup(). That fails due to the same problem resulting in recursive #GPs until the kernel runs out of stack space and double faults. Prevent this by storing the supported independent features in fpu_kernel_cfg during XSTATE initialization and use that cached value for retrieving the independent feature bits to be written into IA32_XSS.
