Linux 5.0 compat: SIMD compatibility
Restore SIMD optimizations for 5.0 and newer kernels. This is accomplished by leveraging the fact that by definition dedicated kernel threads never need to concern themselves with saving and restoring the user FPU state. Therefore, they may use the FPU as long as we can guarantee user tasks always restore their FPU state before context switching back to user space. For the 5.0 and 5.1 kernels disabling preemption and local interrupts is sufficient to allow the FPU to be used. All non-kernel threads will restore the preserved user FPU state. For 5.2 and latter kernels the user FPU state restoration will be skipped if the kernel determines the registers have not changed. Therefore, for these kernels we need to perform the additional step of saving and restoring the FPU registers. Invalidating the per-cpu global tracking the FPU state would force a restore but that functionality is private to the core x86 FPU implementation and unavailable. In practice, restricting SIMD to kernel threads is not a major restriction for ZFS. The vast majority of SIMD operations are already performed by the IO pipeline. The remaining cases are relatively infrequent and can be handled by the generic code without significant impact. The two most noteworthy cases are: 1) Decrypting the wrapping key for an encrypted dataset, i.e. `zfs load-key`. All other encryption and decryption operations will use the SIMD optimized implementations. 2) Generating the payload checksums for a `zfs send` stream. In order to avoid making any changes to the higher layers of ZFS all of the `*_get_ops()` functions were updated to take in to consideration the calling context. This allows for the fastest implementation to be used as appropriate (see kfpu_allowed()). The only other notable instance of SIMD operations being used outside a kernel thread was at module load time. This code was moved in to a taskq in order to accommodate the new kernel thread restriction. Finally, a few other modifications were made in order to further harden this code and facilitate testing. They include updating each implementations operations structure to be declared as a constant. And allowing "cycle" to be set when selecting the preferred ops in the kernel as well as user space.
