Bug description:
It was observed that starting certain apps (xterm, amdcccle) crash the
xserver on Skylake. Rough bisect showed that 4.1-rc6 was ok while rc5
wasn't, and git bisect found the fixing commit:
commit 061cc3ab4c7b8ed235466134a00b9531766f6c1a
Author: Ingo Molnar <mingo@xxxxxxxxxx>

x86/fpu: Disable XSAVES* support for now
while it's also cc'd to stable@, it's needed in the vivid kernel now
to make the (backport) kernel deadline for 14.04.3.
