From: James Hogan <james.hogan@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit f8483988cadd7dd22de928db29ed3bcbe02faf78 ] The lose_fpu() function only disables the FPU in CP0_Status.CU1 if the FPU is in use and MSA isn't enabled. This isn't necessarily a problem because KSTK_STATUS(current), the version of CP0_Status stored on the kernel stack on entry from user mode, does always get updated and gets restored when returning to user mode, but I don't think it was intended, and it is inconsistent with the case of only the FPU being in use. Sometimes leaving the FPU enabled may also mask kernel bugs where FPU operations are executed when the FPU might not be enabled. So lets disable the FPU in the MSA case too.
