Indeed, 16 128-bit XMM registers occupy 256 bytes.

I wonder if xsave_area_desc[1].size = 256 would be more clear here.

Alternatively/additionally, a reference to the documentation source for these values would be helpful. e.g., Intel SDM Vol 1, Ch. 13.4.1 "Legacy Region of an XSAVE Area", Table 13-1 "Format of the Legacy Region of an XSAVE Area" shows these sizes and offsets.
