x86/fpu: Remove task_disable_lazy_fpu_restore()

Replace task_disable_lazy_fpu_restore() with easier to read
open-coded uses: we already update the fpu->last_cpu field
explicitly in other cases.

(This also removes yet another task_struct using FPU method.)

Better explain the fpu::last_cpu field in the structure definition.
