Xen leaves XSAVE set in cpuid, but doesn't allow cr4.OSXSAVE
to be set. This confuses the kernel and it ends up crashing on
an xsetbv instruction.
At boot time, try to set cr4.OSXSAVE, and mask XSAVE out of
cpuid it we can't. This will produce a spurious error from Xen,
but allows us to support XSAVE if/when Xen does.
This also factors out the cpuid mask decisions to boot time.

check_unsafe_exec() also notes whether the fs_struct is being
shared by more threads than will get killed by the exec, and if so
sets LSM_UNSAFE_SHARE to make bprm_set_creds() careful about euid.
But /proc/<pid>/cwd and /proc/<pid>/root lookups make transient
use of get_fs_struct(), which also raises that sharing count.
This might occasionally cause a setuid program not to change euid,
in the same way as happened with files->count (check_unsafe_exec
also looks at sighand->count, but /proc doesn't raise that one).
We'd prefer exec not to unshare fs_struct: so fix this in procfs,
replacing get_fs_struct() by get_fs_path(), which does path_get
while still holding task_lock, instead of raising fs->count.

Joe Malicki reports that setuid sometimes doesn't: very rarely,
a setuid root program does not get root euid; and, by the way,
they have a health check running lsof every few minutes.
Right, check_unsafe_exec() notes whether the files_struct is being
shared by more threads than will get killed by the exec, and if so
sets LSM_UNSAFE_SHARE to make bprm_set_creds() careful about euid.
But /proc/<pid>/fd and /proc/<pid>/fdinfo lookups make transient
use of get_files_struct(), which also raises that sharing count.
There's a rather simple fix for this: exec's check on files->count
has been redundant ever since 2.6.1 made it unshare_files() (except
while compat_do_execve() omitted to do so) - just remove that check.
[Note to -stable: this patch will not apply before 2.6.29: earlier
releases should just remove the files->count line from unsafe_exec().]

2.6.26's commit fd8328be87
"sanitize handling of shared descriptor tables in failing execve()"
moved the unshare_files() from flush_old_exec() and several binfmts
to the head of do_execve(); but forgot to make the same change to
compat_do_execve(), leaving a CLONE_FILES files_struct shared across
exec from a 32-bit process on a 64-bit kernel.
It's arguable whether the files_struct really ought to be unshared
across exec; but 2.6.1 made that so to stop the loading binary's fd
leaking into other threads, and a 32-bit process on a 64-bit kernel
ought to behave in the same way as 32 on 32 and 64 on 64.
