x86/fpu: Use restore_init_xstate() instead of math_state_restore() on kthread exec

Change flush_thread() to do user_fpu_begin() and restore_init_xstate()
instead of math_state_restore().

Note: "TODO: cleanup this horror" is still valid. We do not need
init_fpu() at all, we only need fpu_alloc() and memset(0). But this
needs other changes, in particular user_fpu_begin() should set
used_math().
