x86/fpu: Split old_fpu & new_fpu handling into separate functions

Browse source

By moving all of the new_fpu state handling into switch_fpu_finish(),
the code can be simplified some more.

This gets rid of the prefetch, but given the size of the FPU register
state on modern CPUs, and the amount of work done by __switch_to()
inbetween both functions, the value of a single cache line prefetch
seems somewhat dubious anyway.
