x86/fpu: Rename xsave.header::xstate_bv to 'xfeatures'
'xsave.header::xstate_bv' is a misnomer - what does 'bv' stand for? It probably comes from the 'XGETBV' instruction name, but I could not find in the Intel documentation where that abbreviation comes from. It could mean 'bit vector' - or something else? But how about - instead of guessing about a weird name - we named the field in an obvious and descriptive way that tells us exactly what it does? So rename it to 'xfeatures', which is a bitmask of the xfeatures that are fpstate_active in that context structure. Eyesore like: fpu->state->xsave.xsave_hdr.xstate_bv |= XSTATE_FP; is now much more readable: fpu->state->xsave.header.xfeatures |= XSTATE_FP; Which form is not just infinitely more readable, but is also shorter as well.
