This is an attempt to have generic FPU enable/disable
calls similar to x86. 
So that we can simplify gpu/drm/amd/display/dc/os_types.h

Also adds FPU correctness logic seen in x86.

v2:
- Added asm/fpu/api.h powerpc variant with kernel_fpu_begin/end()
  and kernel_fpu_enabled() declarations
- Updated kernel_fpu_enabled as EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL
- Got rid of macro switch for PPC in dc/os_types.h as header file
  with same name as x86 is added by previous patch in the series
