x86/fpu: Rename and sanitize fpu__save/copy()
Both function names are a misnomer. fpu__save() is actually about synchronizing the hardware register state into the task's memory state so that either coredump or a math exception handler can inspect the state at the time where the problem happens. The function guarantees to preserve the register state, while "save" is a common terminology for saving the current state so it can be modified and restored later. This is clearly not the case here. Rename it to fpu_sync_fpstate(). fpu__copy() is used to clone the current task's FPU state when duplicating task_struct. While the register state is a copy the rest of the FPU state is not. Name it accordingly and remove the really pointless @src argument along with the warning which comes along with it. Nothing can ever copy the FPU state of a non-current task. It's clearly just a consequence of arch_dup_task_struct(), but it makes no sense to proliferate that further.
