x86/fpu: Rename unlazy_fpu() to fpu__save()
This function is a misnomer on two levels:
1) it doesn't really manipulate TS on modern CPUs anymore, its
primary purpose is to save FPU state, used:
- when executing fork()/clone(): to copy current FPU state
to the child's FPU state.
- when handling math exceptions: to generate the math error
si_code in the signal frame.
2) even on legacy CPUs it doesn't actually 'unlazy', if then
it lazies the FPU state: as a side effect of the old FNSAVE
instruction which clears (destroys) FPU state it's necessary
to set CR0::TS.
So rename it to fpu__save() to better reflect its purpose.
