i387: fix up some fpu_counter confusion
This makes sure we clear the FPU usage counter for newly created tasks, just so that we start off in a known state (for example, don't try to preload the FPU state on the first task switch etc). It also fixes a thinko in when we increment the fpu_counter at task switch time, introduced by commit 34ddc81a230b ("i387: re-introduce FPU state preloading at context switch time"). We should increment the *new* task fpu_counter, not the old task, and only if we decide to use that state (whether lazily or preloaded). Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
