PATCH 1/1 x86: xsave: cleanup return codes in check_for_xstate()

The places which call check_for_xstate() only care about zero or non-zero so this patch doesn't change how the code runs, but it's a cleanup. The main reason for this patch is that I'm looking for places which don't return -EFAULT for copy_from_user() failures.
