[PATCH RESEND] x86: irq_fpu_usable returns false negatives with eagerfpu

[Pekka Riikonen <priikone@iki.fi>]

With the addition of eagerfpu the irq_fpu_usable() now returns false 
negatives especially in the case of ksoftirqd and interrupted idle task, 
two common cases for FPU use for example in networking/crypto.  With 
eagerfpu=off FPU use is possible in those contexts.  This is because of 
the eagerfpu check in interrupted_kernel_fpu_idle():

...
  * For now, with eagerfpu we will return interrupted kernel FPU
  * state as not-idle. TBD: Ideally we can change the return value
  * to something like __thread_has_fpu(current). But we need to
  * be careful of doing __thread_clear_has_fpu() before saving
  * the FPU etc for supporting nested uses etc. For now, take
  * the simple route!
...
 	if (use_eager_fpu())
 		return 0;

As eagerfpu is automatically "on" on those CPUs that also have the 
features like AES-NI this patch changes the eagerfpu check to return 1 in 
case the kernel_fpu_begin() has not been said yet.  Once it has been the 
__thread_has_fpu() will start returning 0.

Notice that with eagerfpu the __thread_has_fpu is always true initially. 
FPU use is thus always possible no matter what task is under us, unless 
the state has already been saved with kernel_fpu_begin().
