[PATCH 1/2] ARM: Implemented support for VFP PM context saving

From: Tero Kristo <tero.kristo at nokia.com>
In some ARM architectures, like OMAP3, the VFP context can be lost during
dynamic sleep cycle. For this purpose, there is now a function
vfp_pm_save_context() that should be called before the VFP is assumed to
lose context. Next VFP trap will then restore context automatically.
We need to have the last_VFP_context[cpu] cleared after the save in idle,
else the restore would fail to restore when it sees that the last_VFP_context
is same as the current threads vfp_state. This happens when the same
process/thread traps an exception post idle.
Main work for this patch was done by Peter and Rajendra. Some cleanup and
optimization by Tero.
