x86/fpu: Introduce restore_init_xstate()
Extract the "use_eager_fpu()" code from drop_init_fpu() into a new, simple helper restore_init_xstate(). The next patch adds another user. - It is not clear why we do not check use_fxsr() like fpu_restore_checking() does. eager_fpu_init_bp() calls setup_init_fpu_buf() too, and we have the "eagerfpu=on" kernel option. - Ignoring the fact that init_xstate_buf is "struct xsave_struct *", not "union thread_xstate *", it is not clear why we can not simply use fpu_restore_checking() and avoid the code duplication. - It is not clear why we can't call setup_init_fpu_buf() unconditionally to always create init_xstate_buf(). Then do_device_not_available() path (at least) could use restore_init_xstate() too. It doesn't need to init fpu->state, its content doesn't matter until unlazy_fpu()/__switch_to()/etc which overwrites this memory anyway.
