This patch reorganizes and cleans up the FPU code. Main changes include:

1. Related functions are re-arranged together.
2. FPU save/restore code are extracted out as independent functions (fsave/frstor, fxsave/fxrstor, xsave/xrstor). 3. Two FPU entry functions, fpu_save() and fpu_restore(), are defined. They utilize xsave/xrstor to save/restore FPU state if CPU supports extended state. Otherwise they fall back to fxsave/fxrstor or fsave/frstor.
