x86/fpu: Remove preempt_disable() in fpu__clear()
The preempt_disable() section was introduced in commit
a10b6a16cd
("x86/fpu: Make the fpu state change in fpu__clear() scheduler-atomic")
and it was said to be temporary.
fpu__initialize() initializes the FPU struct to its initial value and
then sets ->initialized to 1. The last part is the important one.
The content of the state does not matter because it gets set via
copy_init_fpstate_to_fpregs().
A preemption here has little meaning because the registers will always be
set to the same content after copy_init_fpstate_to_fpregs(). A softirq
with a kernel_fpu_begin() could also force to save FPU's registers after
fpu__initialize() without changing the outcome here.
Remove the preempt_disable() section in fpu__clear(), preemption here
does not hurt.
