x86, fpu: Fix math_state_restore() race with kernel_fpu_begin()
math_state_restore() can race with kernel_fpu_begin() if irq comes right after __thread_fpu_begin(), __save_init_fpu() will overwrite fpu->state we are going to restore. Add 2 simple helpers, kernel_fpu_disable() and kernel_fpu_enable() which simply set/clear in_kernel_fpu, and change math_state_restore() to exclude kernel_fpu_begin() in between. Alternatively we could use local_irq_save/restore, but probably these new helpers can have more users. Perhaps they should disable/enable preemption themselves, in this case we can remove preempt_disable() in __restore_xstate_sig().
