* 'x86-fpu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip: x86-64: move clts into batch cpu state updates when preloading fpu x86-64: move unlazy_fpu() into lazy cpu state part of context switch x86-32: make sure clts is batched during context switch x86: split out core __math_state_restore
