Systems without an FPU are generally old and therefore use lazy FPU
switching.  Unsurprisingly, math emulation in eager FPU mode is a
bit buggy.  Fix it.

There were two bugs involving kernel code trying to use the FPU
registers in eager mode even if they didn't exist and one BUG_ON
that was incorrect.
