If the registers are active, the registers can be modified directly. If the registers are not active, the modification must be performed on the task FPU buffer. When the state is not active, the kernel could perform modifications directly to the buffer. But in order for it to do that, it needs to know where in the buffer the specific state it wants to modify is located. Doing this is not robust against optimizations that compact the FPU buffer, as each access would require computing where in the buffer it is. The easiest way to modify supervisor xfeature data is to force restore the registers and write directly to the MSRs. Often times this is just fine anyway as the registers need to be restored before returning to userspace. Do this for now, leaving buffer writing optimizations for the future. Add a new function fpregs_lock_and_load() that can simultaneously call fpregs_lock() and do this restore. Also perform some extra sanity checks in this function since this will be used in non-fpu focused code.
