user_fpu_begin() sets fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx to task's fpu struct. This is always the case since there is no lazy FPU anymore. fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx is used during context switch to decide if it needs to load the saved registers or if the currently loaded registers are valid. It could be skipped during a taskA -> kernel thread -> taskA switch because the switch to the kernel thread would not alter the CPU's sFPU tate. Since this field is always updated during context switch and never invalidated, setting it manually (in user context) makes no difference. A kernel thread with kernel_fpu_begin() block could set fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx to NULL but a kernel thread does not use user_fpu_begin(). This is a leftover from the lazy-FPU time. Remove user_fpu_begin(), it does not change fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx's content.
