Subject: [PATCH 04/22] x86/fpu: Always init the `state' in fpu__clear()

fpu__clear() only initializes the `state' if the FPU is present. This
initialisation is also required for the FPU-less system and takes place
math_emulate(). Since fpu__initialize() only performs the initialization
if ->initialized is zero it does not matter that it is invoked each time
an opcode is emulated. It makes the removal of ->initialized easier if
the struct is also initialized in FPU-less case at the same time.

Move fpu__initialize() before the FPU check so it is also performed in
FPU-less case.
