x86/fpu/xstate: Define new functions for clearing fpregs and xstates
Currently, fpu__clear() clears all fpregs and xstates. Once XSAVES
supervisor states are introduced, supervisor settings (e.g. CET xstates)
must remain active for signals; It is necessary to have separate functions:
- Create fpu__clear_user_states(): clear only user settings for signals;
- Create fpu__clear_all(): clear both user and supervisor settings in
flush_thread().
Also modify copy_init_fpstate_to_fpregs() to take a mask from above two
functions.
Remove obvious side-comment in fpu__clear(), while at it.
[ bp: Make the second argument of fpu__clear() bool after requesting it
a bunch of times during review.
- Add a comment about copy_init_fpstate_to_fpregs() locking needs. ]
