Hi all

I was looking into the file
"source/Plugins/Process/Utility/RegisterContext_x86.h" and I noticed one
thing in FXSAVE structure. The 'ftag' is defined as a 16 bit field.

However, on referring to Architecture Software Developer Manual for x86
architectures, one can see that the memory layout of the contents of FXSAVE
area has only 8 bits for 'ftag' register and rest of the 8 bits are
reserved. Is there any specific reason of keeping 'ftag' field to be 16
bits in FXSAVE structure in LLDB for x86 Architectures?
