While most of a task's FPU state is only needed in user space, the
protection keys need to be in place immediately after a context switch.
The reason is that any access to userspace memory while running in
kernel mode also needs to abide by the memory permissions specified in
the protection keys.
The "eager switch" is a preparation for loading the FPU state on return
to userland. Instead of decoupling PKRU state from xstate, update PKRU
within xstate on write operations by the kernel.
For user tasks the PKRU should be always read from the xsave area and it
should not change anything because the PKRU value was loaded as part of
FPU restore.
For kernel threads the default "init_pkru_value" will be written. Before
this commit, the kernel thread would end up with a random value which it
inherited from the previous user task.
