I will review this anyway, in the hope that it will help you submit
the fixed patch down the way.

It will look prettier in print if you use @sc{xsave} instead of
XSAVE.  (The result in the Info manual is the same.)

Two spaces between sentences, please (here and elsewhere in your

XFEATURE_ENABLED_MASK is a C symbol, so it should be in @code.
