x86, math-emu: fix init_fpu for task != current
Impact: fix math-emu related crash while using GDB/ptrace init_fpu() calls finit to initialize a task's xstate, while finit always works on the current task. If we use PTRACE_GETFPREGS on another process and both processes did not already use floating point, we get a null pointer exception in finit. This patch creates a new function finit_task that takes a task_struct parameter. finit becomes a wrapper that simply calls finit_task with current. On the plus side this avoids many calls to get_current which would each resolve to an inline assembler mov instruction. An empty finit_task has been added to i387.h to avoid linker errors in case the compiler still emits the call in init_fpu when CONFIG_MATH_EMULATION is not defined. The declaration of finit in i387.h has been removed as the remaining code using this function gets its prototype from fpu_proto.h.
