I did space-out stuff a bit ontop, it looks much more readable to me
this way and that fpu.preload assignment is actually parseable at a
quick glance now :-)

Subject: [PATCH] x86, fpu: Use an explicit if/else in switch_fpu_prepare

Use an explicit if/else branch after __save_init_fpu(old) in
switch_fpu_prepare. This makes substituting the assignment with a call
in task_disable_lazy_fpu_restore() in the next patch easier to review.
