Re: [RFC] Design considerations for XSAVE Extended Area getters/setters



I'm hoping that whatever solution is arrived at, it does not introduce
any new #ifdef ... #endif variations of structures that might get passed
between kernel and module code.  Such variations create dependencies in
the modules which are at best "difficult" to deal with at run-time.

(We currently don't have a mechanism to syncrhonize building of modules
on a per-kernel-configuration basis...)
