Peter Anvin <hpa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> CommitDate: Tue, 18 Sep 2012 15:52:23 -0700 x86, fpu: enable eagerfpu by default for xsaveopt xsaveopt/xrstor support optimized state save/restore by tracking the INIT state and MODIFIED state during context-switch. Enable eagerfpu by default for processors supporting xsaveopt. Can be disabled by passing "eagerfpu=off" boot parameter.
