x86/fpu/math-emu: Fix crash in fork()
During later stages of math-emu bootup the following crash triggers:
math_emulate: 0060:
c100d0a8
Kernel panic - not syncing: Math emulation needed in kernel
CPU: 0 PID: 1511 Comm: login Not tainted 4.2.0-rc7+ #1012

The reason is the incorrect assumption in fpu_copy(), that FNSAVE
can be executed from math-emu kernels as well.
Don't try to copy the registers, the soft state will be copied
by fork anyway, so the child task inherits the parent task's
soft math state.
With this fix applied math-emu kernels boot up fine on modern
hardware and the 'no387 nofxsr' boot options.
