[RFC PATCH 10/11] x86,fpu: fix fpu_copy to deal with not-loaded fpu

From: riel
Date: Sun Jan 11 2015 - 17:08:05 EST


From: Rik van Riel <riel@xxxxxxxxxx>

It is possible to hit fpu_copy in eager fpu mode, but without
the current task's FPU context actually loaded into the CPU.

In that case, we should copy the FPU context from memory, not
save it from registers.
