Intel Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET) introduces the following MSRs into the XSAVES system states. IA32_U_CET (user-mode CET settings), IA32_PL3_SSP (user-mode shadow stack), IA32_PL0_SSP (kernel-mode shadow stack), IA32_PL1_SSP (ring-1 shadow stack), IA32_PL2_SSP (ring-2 shadow stack).

It seems like it'll generate bad code for no obvious purpose.
That prevents any possibility that the compiler will insert padding, although in 64-bit kernel this should not happen to either struct. Also all xstate components here are packed. Yu-cheng
