Merge branch 'x86-fpu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull fpu state cleanups from Ingo Molnar:
 "This tree streamlines further aspects of FPU handling by eliminating
  the prepare_to_copy() complication and moving that logic to
  arch_dup_task_struct().

  It also fixes the FPU dumps in threaded core dumps, removes and old
  (and now invalid) assumption plus micro-optimizes the exit path by
  avoiding an FPU save for dead tasks."

Fixed up trivial add-add conflict in arch/sh/kernel/process.c that came
in because we now do the FPU handling in arch_dup_task_struct() rather
than the legacy (and now gone) prepare_to_copy().

* 'x86-fpu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
  x86, fpu: drop the fpu state during thread exit
  x86, xsave: remove thread_has_fpu() bug check in __sanitize_i387_state()
  coredump: ensure the fpu state is flushed for proper multi-threaded core dump
  fork: move the real prepare_to_copy() users to arch_dup_task_struct()
