[PATCH 07/11] x86, fpu: rework YMM definition

[Dave Hansen]

From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

We are about to rework all of the "extended state" definitions.
This makes the 'ymm' naming consistent with the AVX-512 types
we will introduce later.

We also add a convenience type: "reg_128_bit" so that we do
not have to spell out our arithmetic.
