[PATCH 02/19] x86, fpu: Wrap get_xsave_addr() to make it safer

[Dave Hansen]

From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The MPX code appears to be saving off the FPU in a potntially
unsafe way (if eagerfpu=off).  It does not disable preemption or
ensure that the FPU state has been allocated.  All of the
preemption safety comes from the unfortunatley-named
'unlazy_fpu()'.

This patch introduces a new helper which will do both of those
things internally.

Changes from v21:
 * add comments about preemption
 * rename helper to get_xsave_field_ptr()

Changes from "v19":
 * remove 'tsk' argument to get_xsave_addr() since the code
   can only realistically work on 'current', and fix up the
   comment a bit to match.

Changes from "v17":
 * fix s/xstate/xsave_field/ in the function comment
 * remove EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL()
