Subject: [PATCH 4.4 06/93] x86/boot: Initialize FPU and X86_FEATURE_ALWAYS even if we dont have CPUID

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@...nel.org>

commit 05fb3c199bb09f5b85de56cc3ede194ac95c5e1f upstream.

Otherwise arch_task_struct_size == 0 and we die.  While we're at it,
set X86_FEATURE_ALWAYS, too.
