VSX uses a combination of the old vector registers, the old FP registers
and new "second halves" of the FP registers.

Thus when we need to see the VSX state in the thread struct
(flush_vsx_to_thread) or when we'll use the VSX in the kernel
(enable_kernel_vsx) we need to ensure they are all flushed into
the thread struct if either of them is individually enabled.

Unfortunately we only tested if the whole VSX was enabled, not
if they were individually enabled.
