First of all please format the struct members tabular as x86 does all
over the place.

What's the purpose of 'int' 'short' here? This data is unsinged. We have
no negative feature bits and no negative xfeatures.

Also if your intention is to save space, then you might want to look at
the compiler output. It's not saving anything, it's still 8 byte because
the compiler pads the struct.

And you could have changed the existing table just so:

static unsigned short xsave_cpuid_features[] __initdata = {
        [XFEATURE_FP]                          = X86_FEATURE_FPU,
        [XFEATURE_SSE]                         = X86_FEATURE_XMM,
        [XFEATURE_YMM]                         = X86_FEATURE_AVX,
        [XFEATURE_BNDREGS]                     = X86_FEATURE_MPX,
        [XFEATURE_BNDCSR]                      = X86_FEATURE_MPX,
        [XFEATURE_OPMASK]                      = X86_FEATURE_AVX512F,
        [XFEATURE_ZMM_Hi256]                   = X86_FEATURE_AVX512F,
        [XFEATURE_Hi16_ZMM]                    = X86_FEATURE_AVX512F,
        [XFEATURE_PT_UNIMPLEMENTED_SO_FAR]     = X86_FEATURE_INTEL_PT,
        [XFEATURE_PKRU]                        = X86_FEATURE_PKU,
        [XFEATURE_PASID]                       = X86_FEATURE_ENQCMD,
};

and the implementation to:            

        for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(xsave_cpuid_features); i++) {
-               if (xsave_cpuid_features[i] || 
!boot_cpu_has(xsave_cpuid_features[i]))
+               if (xsave_cpuid_features[i] || 
!boot_cpu_has(xsave_cpuid_features[i]))
                        xfeatures_mask_all &= ~BIT_ULL(i);

Even with the gaps for XTILE the table is smaller, the code is simpler...
