Are you trying to say here that the mask describes the state saved in
@state initially and then, when the task is switched to dynamic state,
it denotes the state in ->state_ptr?

Calling it a copy here is confusing - you wanna say that when dynamic
states get used, the state in state_ptr supercedes and invalidates the
state in @state. AFAIU, at least.

Copy of some?

Why not, "Initial in-memory copy of all FPU registers that we
save/restore over context switches. When the task is switched to dynamic
states, this copy is replaced with the one in ->state_ptr."

Which brings me to the more important question and I guess I'll see when
I get to the end of this: are we aiming at having a *single* ->state
pointer which gets used in both static and dynamic FPU state settings?

What's that thing for when we have fpu_kernel_xstate_max_size too?

I must be missing something here but where's the logic that decides
between the static and dynamic buffer? Later patches?

I have to admit I've yet to see how the "switching" between static and
dynamic state happens...
