Fix static-binary lazy FPU context allocation Long ago static startup did not parse the auxiliary vector and therefore could not get at any `AT_FPUCW' tag to check whether upon FPU context allocation the kernel would use a FPU control word setting different to that provided by the `__fpu_control' variable. Static startup therefore always initialized the FPU control word, forcing immediate FPU context allocation even for binaries that otherwise never used the FPU. As from GIT commit f8f900ecb9096ec47f5b7bb7626e29223c69061a static startup supports parsing the auxiliary vector, so now it can avoid explicit initialization of the FPU control word, just as can dynamic startup, in the usual case where the setting written to the FPU control word would be the same as the kernel uses. This defers FPU context allocation until the binary itself actually pokes at the FPU. Note that the `AT_FPUCW' tag is usually absent from the auxiliary vector in which case _FPU_DEFAULT is assumed to be the kernel default.
