* rtems/new-exceptions/cpu.h: Per PR211 fix
	saving/restoring floating point context.  The fpsave and fprestore
	routines are only used in a executing context which _is_ fp and hence
	has the FPU enabled. The current behavior required the FPU always to
	be on which is very dangerous if lazy context switching is used.
	[Joel Note: Some ports explicitly enabled the FPU in the FP save and
	restore routines to avoid this.]

	The patch also makes sure (on powerpc only) that the FPU is disabled
	for integer tasks. Note that this is crucial if deferred fp context
	switching is used. Otherwise, fp context corruption may go undetected!
	Also note that even tasks which merely push/pop FP registers to/from
	the stack without modifying them still MUST be FP tasks - otherwise
	(if lazy FP context switching is used), FP register corruption (of
	other, FP, tasks may occur)!

	Furthermore, (on PPC) by default, lazy FP context save/restore
	is _disabled_.

This is the top level directory of the C RTEMS environment.  The
following is a description of the contents of each file and
subdirectory directly in this directory:

    tests

       This directory contains the RTEMS Test Suites. Currently
       this includes the following suites:

         + Single Processor Test Suite
         + Multiprocessor Test Suite
         + Timing Test Suite
         + Sample Application Suite

    lib

       This directory contains src for RTEMS libraries:
          libc, board support (including drivers) and libcpu.

    exec

       This directory contains the source code for the RTEMS executive.
