Hmm, if the the thread was not using the FPU, and this fails to save
anything in to the xsave_buf, what will bndcsr point to?  It _looks_ to
me like it will just point to uninitialized data since the xsave never
happened.

Fenghua, shouldn't get_xsave_addr() be checking the xstate bit against
the xsave->xstate_bv?
