[PATCH] KVM: x86: Add a WARN on TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD in kvm_load_guest_fpu()

[Sean Christopherson]

WARN once in kvm_load_guest_fpu() if TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD is observed, as
that would mean that KVM is corrupting userspace's FPU by saving
unknown register state into arch.user_fpu.  Add a comment to explain
why KVM WARNs on TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD instead of implementing logic
similar to fpu__copy().

via kvm_sched_in (not the arch_ function).  Applied with that change.
