[PATCH 4/5] x86, fpu: shift init_fpu() from eager_fpu_init() to eager_fpu_init_bp()

From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Sun Aug 24 2014 - 15:50:12 EST


This is not strictly needed, eager_fpu_init() is called before
the very first schedule() on this CPU, but let's remove the last
unconditional clear_used_math().

eager_fpu_init() does init_fpu() every time, but this is only needed
on boot CPU, otherwise this idle thread already has a valid fpu state
copied by arch_dup_task_struct().

And this allows to remove clear_used_math(). swapper/0 doesn't have
this flag when start_kernel() calls us, other idle threads correctly
have this flag set.
