x86, fpu: Introduce per-cpu in_kernel_fpu state
interrupted_kernel_fpu_idle() tries to detect if kernel_fpu_begin() is safe or not. In particular it should obviously deny the nested kernel_fpu_begin() and this logic looks very confusing. If use_eager_fpu() == T we rely on a) __thread_has_fpu() check in interrupted_kernel_fpu_idle(), and b) on the fact that _begin() does __thread_clear_has_fpu(). Otherwise we demand that the interrupted task has no FPU if it is in kernel mode, this works because __kernel_fpu_begin() does clts() and interrupted_kernel_fpu_idle() checks X86_CR0_TS. Add the per-cpu "bool in_kernel_fpu" variable, and change this code to check/set/clear it. This allows to do more cleanups and fixes, see the next changes. The patch also moves WARN_ON_ONCE() under preempt_disable() just to make this_cpu_read() look better, this is not really needed. And in fact I think we should move it into __kernel_fpu_begin().
