Ard Biesheuvel 73c132c15d ARM: add support for kernel mode NEON ... In order to safely support the use of NEON instructions in kernel mode, some precautions need to be taken: - the userland context that may be present in the registers (even if the NEON/VFP is currently disabled) must be stored under the correct task (which may not be 'current' in the UP case), - to avoid having to keep track of additional vfpstates for the kernel side, disallow the use of NEON in interrupt context and run with preemption disabled, - after use, re-enable preemption and re-enable the lazy restore machinery by disabling the NEON/VFP unit. This patch adds the functions kernel_neon_begin() and kernel_neon_end() which take care of the above. It also adds the Kconfig symbol KERNEL_MODE_NEON to enable it.
