The KVM FP code uses a pair of flags to denote three states: - FP_ENABLED set: the guest owns the FP state - FP_HOST set: the host owns the FP state - FP_ENABLED and FP_HOST clear: nobody owns the FP state at all and both flags set is an illegal state, which nothing ever checks for... As it turns out, this isn't really a good match for flags, and we'd be better off if this was a simpler tristate, each state having a name that actually reflect the state: - FP_STATE_FREE - FP_STATE_HOST_OWNED - FP_STATE_GUEST_OWNED Kill the two flags, and move over to an enum encoding these three states. This results in less confusing code, and less risk of ending up in the uncharted territory of a 4th state if we forget to clear one of the two flags.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
