Subject: [PATCH 2/4] x86, fpu: don't abuse ->has_fpu in __kernel_fpu_begin/end
Date: Fri, 29 Aug 2014 20:16:32 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140829181632.GC30659@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20140829181533.GA30659@redhat.com>

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

The logic becomes really simple afaics: if _begin() does save() then
_end() needs restore(), and this is controlled by __thread_has_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.
