Jeremy Fitzhardinge e6e9cac8c3 x86: split out core __math_state_restore
Split the core fpu state restoration out into __math_state_restore, which
assumes that cr0.TS is clear and that the fpu context has been initialized.

This will be used during context switch.  There are two reasons this is
desireable:

- There's a small clarification.  When __switch_to() calls math_state_restore,
  it relies on the fact that tsk_used_math() returns true, and so will
  never do a blocking init_fpu().  __math_state_restore() does not have
  (or need) that logic, so the question never arises.

- It allows the clts() to be moved earler in __switch_to() so it can be performed
  while cpu context updates are batched (will be done in a later patch).

[ Impact: refactor code to make reuse cleaner; no functional change ]
