/*
* Save the FPSIMD state to memory and invalidate cpu view.
* This function must be called with preemption disabled.
When the current task's FPSIMD/SVE/SME state may be live on *any* CPU in the system, special care must be taken when manipulating that state, as this manipulation can race with preemption and/or asynchronous usage of FPSIMD/SVE/SME (e.g. kernel-mode NEON in softirq handlers). Even when manipulation is is protected with get_cpu_fpsimd_context() and get_cpu_fpsimd_context(), the logic necessary when the state is live on the current CPU can be wildly different from the logic necessary when the state is not live on the current CPU. A number of historical and extant issues result from failing to handle these cases consistetntly and/or correctly. To make it easier to get such manipulation correct, add a new fpsimd_save_and_flush_current_state() helper function, which ensures that the current task's state has been saved to memory and any stale state on any CPU has been "flushed" such that is not live on any CPU in the system. This will allow code to safely manipulate the saved state without risk of races. Subsequent patches will use the new function.
