    x86/fpu: Decouple fpregs_activate()/fpregs_deactivate() from fpu->fpregs_active · 6cf4edbe
    Ingo Molnar authored
    The fpregs_activate()/fpregs_deactivate() are currently called in such a pattern:
    
    	if (!fpu->fpregs_active)
    		fpregs_activate(fpu);
    
    	...
    
    	if (fpu->fpregs_active)
    		fpregs_deactivate(fpu);
    
    But note that it's actually safe to call them without checking the flag first.
    
    This further decouples the fpu->fpregs_active flag from actual FPU logic.
