This WARN_ON() is always executed in every context switch. All the other checks in fpu internal.h are WARN_ON_FPU(), but this one is plain WARN_ON(). I assume it was forgotten to switch it. So switch it to WARN_ON_FPU() too to avoid some unnecessary code in the context switch, and a potentially expensive cache line miss for the global variable.
