Ingo Molnar df6b35f409 x86/fpu: Rename i387.h to fpu/api.h
We already have fpu/types.h, move i387.h to fpu/api.h.

The file name has become a misnomer anyway: it offers generic FPU APIs,
but is not limited to i387 functionality.

Jan Beulich f317820cb6 x86/xor: Add alternative SSE implementation only prefetching once per 64-byte line
On CPUs with 64-byte last level cache lines, this yields roughly
10% better performance, independent of CPU vendor or specific
model (as far as I was able to test).

Jan Beulich e8f6e3f8a1 x86/xor: Unify SSE-base xor-block routines
Besides folding duplicate code, this has the advantage of fixing
x86-64's failure to use proper (para-virtualizable) accessors
for dealing with CR0.TS.

Vegard Nossum f85612967c x86: add hooks for kmemcheck
The hooks that we modify are:
- Page fault handler (to handle kmemcheck faults)
- Debug exception handler (to hide pages after single-stepping
  the instruction that caused the page fault)

Also redefine memset() to use the optimized version if kmemcheck is
enabled.

(Thanks to Pekka Enberg for minimizing the impact on the page fault
handler.)

As kmemcheck doesn't handle MMX/SSE instructions (yet), we also disable
the optimized xor code, and rely instead on the generic C implementation
in order to avoid false-positive warnings.
