Upstream 4.14 switched to purely eager fpu switching. That was backported to 4.4 and 4.9. This commit makes cobalt able to deal whith the changed kernel behaviour. This commit takes care of 4.9 to begin with. Introduce IPIPE_X86_FPU_EAGER to switch between the new and the old implementations. The new implementation is much simpler than the old one. We basically only deal with the odd case where Xenomai preempts Linux in a kernel-fpu context. In a regular Linux that can never happen and if it happens we need to make sure to get things into a consistent state. We have to make "current" as not owning the fpu anymore and allow others to use in-kernel fpu (kernel_fpu_enable). __switch_to from Linux will do the rest.
