Subject: x86/fpu: Remove the free_thread_xstate() complication
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=11ad19277e025f914518bc2943a240cdd37cf844;p=linux-beck.git

x86/fpu: Remove the free_thread_xstate() complication

Use fpstate_free() directly to manage FPU state.

Only process.c was using this method, so this is a speedup as well,
as it removes the extra function call and related clobbers.
