[PATCH] KVM: x86: kvm_fpu_get() is fpregs_lock_and_load()

[Paolo Bonzini]

The only difference is usage of switch_fpu_return() vs.
fpregs_restore_userregs().  In turn, these are only different
if there is no FPU at all, but KVM requires one.  Therefore use the
pre-made export---the code is simpler and there is no functional change.

Oops, unlike in my tree (patch to be sent tomorrow after I write a 
testcase) there's still an occurrence of switch_fpu_return() in 
vcpu_enter_guest().
