ARM: 7477/1: vfp: Always save VFP state in vfp_pm_suspend on UP
vfp_pm_suspend should save the VFP state in suspend after
any lazy context switch. If it only saves when the VFP is enabled,
the state can get lost when, on a UP system:
Thread 1 uses the VFP
Context switch occurs to thread 2, VFP is disabled but the
VFP context is not saved
Thread 2 initiates suspend
vfp_pm_suspend is called with the VFP disabled, and the unsaved
VFP context of Thread 1 in the registers
Modify vfp_pm_suspend to save the VFP context whenever
vfp_current_hw_state is not NULL.
Includes a fix from Ido Yariv <ido@wizery.com>, who pointed out that on
SMP systems, the state pointer can be pointing to a freed task struct if
a task exited on another cpu, fixed by using #ifndef CONFIG_SMP in the
new if clause.
