Although I have to say, the structure of:

if (boolean test)
        return 1;
return 0;

... truly was hit with the ugly stick.  It really should be:

static inline bool kernel_fpu_using(void)
{
        return in_interrupt() && !(read_cr0() && C86_CR0_TS);
}

Huang: if I recall correctly, these functions were originally designed
to deal with the fact that VIA processors generate spurious #TS faults
due to broken design of the Padlock instructions.  The AES and PCLMUL
instructions actually use SSE registers and so will require different
structure.
