Subject: [PATCH 4/7] x86/fpu: Split the state handling in fpu__drop()

Prepare fpu__drop() to use fpu->fpregs_active.

There are two distinct usecases for fpu__drop() in this context:
exit_thread() when called for 'current' in exit(), and when called
for another task in fork().

This patch does not change behavior, it only adds a couple of
debug checks and structures the code to make the ->fpregs_active
change more obviously correct.

All the complications will be removed later on.
