      [ARM] 5349/1: VFP: Add PM code to save and restore current VFP state · fc0b7a20
      Ben Dooks authored
      When CONFIG_PM is selected, the VFP code does not have any handler
      installed to deal with either saving the VFP state of the current
      task, nor does it do anything to try and restore the VFP after a
      resume.
      
      On resume, the VFP will have been reset and the co-processor access
      control registers are in an indeterminate state (very probably the
      CP10 and CP11 the VFP uses will have been disabled by the ARM core
      reset). When this happens, resume will break as soon as it tries to
      unfreeze the tasks and restart scheduling.
      
      Add a sys device to allow us to hook the suspend call to save the
      current thread state if the thread is using VFP and a resume hook
      which restores the CP10/CP11 access and ensures the VFP is disabled
      so that the lazy swapping will take place on next access.
