While the SDM isn't very clear about this, our present behavior make
Linux 5.19 unhappy. As of commit
8ad7e8f69695 ("x86/fpu/xsave: Support
XSAVEC in the kernel") they're using this CPUID output also to size
the compacted area used by XSAVEC. Getting back zero there isn't really
liked, yet for PV that's the default on capable hardware: XSAVES isn't
exposed to PV domains.
Considering that the size reported is that of the compacted save area,
I view Linux'es assumption as appropriate (short of the SDM properly
considering the case). Therefore we need to populate the field also when
only XSAVEC is supported for a guest.

Fixes: 8d050ed1097c ("x86: don't expose XSAVES capability to PV guests")
