Subject[patch 40/41] x86/fpu: Dont store PKRU in xstate in fpu_reset_fpstate()
PKRU for a task is stored in task->thread.pkru when the task is scheduled
out. For 'current' the authoritative source of PKRU is the hardware.

fpu_reset_fpstate() has two callers:

1) fpu__clear_user_states() for !FPU systems. For those PKRU is irrelevant

2) fpu_flush_thread() which is invoked from flush_thread(). flush_thread()
resets the hardware to the kernel restrictive default value.
