The whole point of calling enable_kernel_fp() in C code before
suspending is to ensure that the FP state gets saved. If FP is used
after that point it is a bug. If you're worried about such bugs, then
clear MSR[FP] after calling enable_kernel_fp(), rather than adding
redundant

What is there that is specfic to a particular core type that can't be
handled
from C code?
In the context of the calling, maybe not in C environment.(Deep sleep

C environment when calling those interfaces)
Could you provide a concrete example?
