Subject: [GIT PULL] x86 FPU changes for 5.2

Hi Linus,

please pull the latest x86-fpu-for-linus tree from:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git x86-fpu-for-linus

This branch contains work started by Rik van Riel and brought to
fruition by Sebastian Andrzej Siewior with the main goal to optimize
when to load FPU registers: only when returning to userspace and not on
every context switch (while the task remains in the kernel).

In addition, this optimization makes kernel_fpu_begin() cheaper by
requiring registers saving only on the first invocation and skipping
that in following ones.

What is more, this series cleans up and streamlines many aspects of the
already complex FPU code, hopefully making it more palatable for future
improvements and simplifications.

Finally, there's a __user annotations fix from Jann Horn.

Thx.
