restore_fpu_checking() calls init_fpu() in error conditions.
While this is wrong(as our main intention is to clear the fpu state of
the thread), this was benign before commit 92d140e21f ("x86: fix taking
DNA during 64bit sigreturn").
Post commit 92d140e21f, live FPU registers may not belong to this
process at this error scenario.
In the error condition for restore_fpu_checking() (especially during the
64bit signal return), we are doing init_fpu(), which saves the live FPU
register state (possibly belonging to some other process context) into
the thread struct (through unlazy_fpu() in init_fpu()). This is wrong
and can leak the FPU data.
For the signal handler restore error condition in restore_i387(), clear
the fpu state present in the thread struct(before ultimately sending a
SIGSEGV for badframe).
For the paranoid error condition check in math_state_restore(), send a
SIGSEGV, if we fail to restore the state.

Suresh Siddha wants to fix a possible FPU leakage in error conditions,
but the fact that save/restore_i387() are inlines in a header file makes
that harder to do than necessary. So start off with an obvious cleanup.
This just moves the x86-64 version of save/restore_i387() out of the
header file, and moves it to the only file that it is actually used in:
arch/x86/kernel/signal_64.c. So exposing it in a header file was wrong
to begin with.
[ Side note: I'd like to fix up some of the games we play with the
32-bit version of these functions too, but that's a separate
matter. The 32-bit versions are shared - under different names
at that! - by both the native x86-32 code and the x86-64 32-bit
compatibility code ]

This patch is the result of an automatic script that consolidates the
format of all the headers in include/asm-x86/.
The format:
1. No leading underscore. Names with leading underscores are reserved.
2. Pathname components are separated by two underscores. So we can
distinguish between mm_types.h and mm/types.h.
3. Everything except letters and numbers are turned into single
underscores.

Fix the math emulation that got broken with the recent lazy allocation of FPU
area. init_fpu() need to be added for the math-emulation path aswell
for the FPU area allocation.
math emulation enabled kernel booted fine with this, in the presence
of "no387 nofxsr" boot param.

If the task never used fpu, initialize the fpu before restoring the FP
state from the signal handler context. This will allocate the fpu
state, if the task never needed it before.

Only allocate the FPU area when the application actually uses FPU, i.e., in the
first lazy FPU trap. This could save memory for non-fpu using apps.
for example: on my system after boot, there are around 300 processes, with
only 17 using FPU.

Split the FPU save area from the task struct. This allows easy migration
of FPU context, and it's generally cleaner. It also allows the following
two optimizations:
1) only allocate when the application actually uses FPU, so in the first
lazy FPU trap. This could save memory for non-fpu using apps. Next patch
does this lazy allocation.
2) allocate the right size for the actual cpu rather than 512 bytes always.
Patches enabling xsave/xrstor support (coming shortly) will take advantage
of this.

This removes all the old code that is no longer used after
the i387 unification and cleanup. The i387_64.h is renamed
to i387.h with no changes, but since it replaces the nonempty
one-line stub i387.h it looks like a big diff and not a rename.

This revamps the i387 code to be shared across 32-bit, 64-bit,
and 32-on-64. It does so by consolidating the code in one place
based on the user_regset accessor interfaces. This switches
32-bit to using the i387_64.h header and 64-bit to using the
i387.c that was previously i387_32.c, but that's what took the
least cleanup in each file. Here i387.h is stubbed to always
include i387_64.h rather than renaming the file, to keep this
diff smaller and easier to read.
