Could become a rainy day for the kvm-kmod maintainer:

For compat support on kernels without init_fpu exported yet, can I
trigger the same result by simply issuing an FPU instruction here so
that do_device_not_available will perform the allocation? Not really
nice, but it doesn't appear to me like there is any code path that would
complain about in-kernel FPU usage (provided we don't need math
emulation - which is quite likely).

That's a pessimization, since it forces the fpu to be switched. If both qemu and the guest don't use the fpu, we can run a guest with some other task's fpu loaded.

Oh, but if it's after the check for !tsk_used_math(), it only triggers once, so that's okay. I guess something like mov %%xmm0, %%xmm0 should do nicely.
