x86, fpu: Don't abuse has_fpu in __kernel_fpu_begin/end()

Now that we have in_kernel_fpu we can remove __thread_clear_has_fpu()
in __kernel_fpu_begin(). And this allows to replace the asymmetrical
and nontrivial use_eager_fpu + tsk_used_math check in kernel_fpu_end()
with the same __thread_has_fpu() check.

The logic becomes really simple; if _begin() does save() then _end()
needs restore(), this is controlled by __thread_has_fpu(). Otherwise
they do clts/stts unless use_eager_fpu().

Not only this makes begin/end symmetrical and imo more understandable,
potentially this allows to change irq_fpu_usable() to avoid all other
checks except "in_kernel_fpu".

Also, with this patch __kernel_fpu_end() does restore_fpu_checking()
and WARNs if it fails instead of math_state_restore(). I think this
looks better because we no longer need __thread_fpu_begin(), and it
would be better to report the failure in this case.
