x86/fpu: Revert ("x86/fpu: Disable AVX when eagerfpu is off")
commit a65050c6f17e52442716138d48d0a47301a8344b upstream. Leonid Shatz noticed that the SDM interpretation of the following recent commit: 394db20ca240741 ("x86/fpu: Disable AVX when eagerfpu is off") ... is incorrect and that the original behavior of the FPU code was correct. Because AVX is not stated in CR0 TS bit description, it was mistakenly believed to be not supported for lazy context switch. This turns out to be false: Intel Software Developer's Manual Vol. 3A, Sec. 2.5 Control Registers: 'TS Task Switched bit (bit 3 of CR0) -- Allows the saving of the x87 FPU/ MMX/SSE/SSE2/SSE3/SSSE3/SSE4 context on a task switch to be delayed until an x87 FPU/MMX/SSE/SSE2/SSE3/SSSE3/SSE4 instruction is actually executed by the new task.' Intel Software Developer's Manual Vol. 2A, Sec. 2.4 Instruction Exception Specification: 'AVX instructions refer to exceptions by classes that include #NM "Device Not Available" exception for lazy context switch.' So revert the commit.
