kvm: x86: Use task structs fpu field for user 

Previously, x86's instantiation of 'struct kvm_vcpu_arch' added an fpu
field to save/restore fpu-related architectural state, which will differ
from kvm's fpu state. However, this is redundant to the 'struct fpu'
field, called fpu, embedded in the task struct, via the thread field.
Thus, this patch removes the user_fpu field from the kvm_vcpu_arch
struct and replaces it with the task struct's fpu field.

This change is significant because the fpu struct is actually quite
large. For example, on the system used to develop this patch, this
change reduces the size of the vcpu_vmx struct from 23680 bytes down to
19520 bytes, when building the kernel with kvmconfig. This reduction in
the size of the vcpu_vmx struct moves us closer to being able to
allocate the struct at order 2, rather than order 3.
