powerpc: Prepare for splitting giveup_{fpu, altivec, vsx} in two
This prepares for the decoupling of saving {fpu,altivec,vsx} registers and marking {fpu,altivec,vsx} as being unused by a thread. Currently giveup_{fpu,altivec,vsx}() does both however optimisations to task switching can be made if these two operations are decoupled. save_all() will permit the saving of registers to thread structs and leave threads MSR with bits enabled. This patch introduces no functional change. Signed-off-by: Cyril Bur <cyrilbur@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
