[PATCH v2 1/3] sh: Move fpu_counter into ARCH specific thread_struct

From: Vineet Gupta
Date: Tue Oct 08 2013 - 03:47:13 EST


From: Vineet Gupta <Vineet.Gupta1@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Only a couple of arches (sh/x86) use fpu_counter in task_struct so it
can be moved out into ARCH specific thread_struct, reducing the size of
task_struct for other arches.

Compile tested sh defconfig + sh4-linux-gcc (4.6.3)
