Subject: [PATCH 077/208] x86/fpu: Improve FPU detection kernel messages

Standardize the various boot time messages printed during FPU detection:

 - Use a common 'x86/fpu: ' prefix for consistency and to make it easy
   to grep boot logs for FPU related messages

 - Correct speling errors

 - Add printout for the legacy FPU case as well

 - Clarify messages
