Series x86/fpu: Make AMX state ready for CPU idle | expand

Commit Message

When a CPU enters an idle state, non-initialized AMX register state may be
the cause of preventing a deeper low-power state. Other extended register
states whether initialized or not does not impact on the CPU idle state.

The new helper can ensure AMX state initialized before CPU idle, and it
will be used by the intel idle driver.

Changes from v3:
* Call out AMX state in changelog (Thomas Glexiner).

Changes from v2:
* Check the feature flag instead of fpu_state_size_dynamic() (Dave Hansen).

Changes from v1:
* Check the dynamic state flag first, to avoid #UD with XGETBV(1).
