Yes ;) Could you look at 1-3 I sent ?

I don't think so... Contrary, I think this __thread_fpu_end() is simply
wrong.

See the changelog in 2/3. I think we still need __thread_fpu_end() if
__save_init_fpu() returns 0. In this case (_I think_) the state of FPU
doesn't match the saved state. IOW, "save_init" == "save" + "init" (I guess),
and that "init" can (say) reset some control register to default value.

See 1/3, I think this should be simply removed.

See above.
