The cost of zeroing the save area on exec is minimal.
This stops the FP registers of a random process being used the first
time an lwp uses the fpu.
sendsig_siginfo() and get_mcontext() now unconditionally copy the FP
registers.
I'll remove the double-copy for signal handlers soon.
get_mcontext() might have been leaking kernel memory to userspace - and
may still do so if i386_use_fxsave is false (short copies).
definitions match those of i386.
Mostly just structure and field renames, in addition:
1) process_xmm_to_s87() and process_s87_to_xmm() moved into
x86/convert_xmm_s87.c so they can be used by amd64's netbsd32 code.
2) The linux signal code simplified to use a structure copy for ths fxsave
data - it matches the hardware definition and won't change.

twice the current file descriptor limit.
Fix a few bugs in the support functions and document the new limit.

compatible method of handling floating point exceptions.
Make kernel support for teh fpu non-optional (486SX should still work).
Only 386 cpus support external fpu, and i386 support was removed years ago.
This means that the npx code no longer uses port 0xf0 or interupt 13.
All the "npx at isa" lines go from the configs, arch/i386/isa/npx.c
is now mandatory for all i386 kernels.
I've renamed npxinit() to fpuinit() and npxinit_cpu() to fpuinit_cpu()
to match the very similar amd64 functions.
The fpu of the boot cpu is now initialised by a direct call from
cpu_configure(), this enables FP emulation for a 486SX.
(for amd64 the cr0 values are set in locore.S and similar).
This fixes a long-standing bug in linux_setregs() - which did not
save the fpu regsiters if they were active.
I've test booted a single cpu i386 kernel (using anita).
amd64 builds - none of teh changes should affect it.
The i386 XEN kernels build, but I'm not sure where they set cr0, and
it might have got lost!
The keo_put_events() callback copies the events from kernel to userland.
It is called for sets of up to 8 events (constant chosen in kevbuf
definitition in kevent1()). The callback is called with pointer to userland
buffer, count of events to copy, and an index parameter which tracks where
we are in userland buffer when called multiple time.
COMPAT_NETBSD32's flavor of keo_put_events() is netbsd32_kevent_put_events().
It did not honour the index parameter, which caused invalid event data to
be returned when userland requested more that 8 events. This caused many
reliability problems, and the obvious startup crash of dovecot log process
when it accessed udata in the nineth event in its buffer, which was NULL.
'environment' registers into the main strcuture.
There are x87 instructions that only affect the environment, but that
is no real excuse for all the sub-structures.
Rename fields so that there are far fewer collisions between the two
sets of field names.
