9495126984 kernel/x86_64: AVX support
xsave or xsavec are supported.
breaks vregs compatibility.
change the thread structure object cache alignment to 64
the xsave fpu_state size isn't defined, it is for instance 832 here, thus I picked 1024.

9dd4d2dd05 kernel: support for Intel SMAP and SMEP on x86_64.
SMAP will generated page faults when the kernel tries to access user pages unless overriden.
If SMAP is enabled, the override instructions are written where needed in memory with
binary "altcodepatches".
Support is enabled by default, might be disabled per safemode setting.
