603 CPUs have the same issue that some 750 CPUs have in that they can crash
in funny ways if a store from an FPU register instruction is executed on a
register that has never been initialized since power on. This patch fixes
it by making sure all FP registers have been properly initialized at kernel
boot.

Paul, I've put this into my powerpc-next tree since its a pretty trivial
patch.
