Subject: Re: [PATCH 3/9] x86/fpu: Make task_struct::thread constant size

I don't think this can explain the problem reported by Nathan, but.

OK,

Why? I think it should do

	x86_init_fpu.last_cpu = -1;
	set_thread_flag(TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD);

And the next patch should kill x86_init_fpu altogether, but keep
TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD. It should be never cleared if PF_KTHREAD.

Oleg.
