Subject: [PATCH 5/5] x86, fpu: sanitize the usage of use_eager_fpu() in switch_fpu_prepare()
Date: Sun, 24 Aug 2014 21:47:47 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140824194747.GA27458@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20140824194700.GA27281@redhat.com>

switch_fpu_prepare() calls use_eager_fpu() 3 times, and every call
is confusing.

1st: "tsk_used_math(new) && use_eager_fpu()" is pointless, eagerfpu
     means that used_math() is also true.

2nd: !fpu.preload && use_eager_fpu() is not possible, we do not need
     to check use_eager_fpu() before use_eager_fpu(). IOW, !preload
     alway means !use_eager_fpu(), so this check only adds more
     confusion.

3rd: If __thread_has_fpu(old) == F then use_eager_fpu() is false too,
     no need to check it before fpu_lazy_restore(). IOW, the "else"
     branch is simply impossible if use_eager_fpu().
