Kernel: retain FPU state upon save

Browse Source 
On the x86, saving FPU state has the side effect of resetting this
state. In some cases (fork, getcontext), this would cause the state
to be lost. This patch restores the FPU state right after saving it,
except when different state is loaded immediately after.
