Also, this patch could use some splitting for easier review, like adding
the helpers in a pre-patch and then wiring in all the logic in another,
for example.

So this one already tests TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD when the kernel has been
built with CONFIG_X86_DEBUG_FPU=y.
I guess we can remove that CONFIG_X86_DEBUG_FPU around it and run it
unconditionally. And then make it return the test result so that you
don't have to run the same test again on cached_flags, or ?

And looking at the code, the consistency check and the potential loading
of FPU registers in switch_fpu_return() belong together so they're kinda
begging to be a single function...?
