x86/fpu: Improve the initialization logic of 'err' around xstate_fault() constraints
There's a confusing aspect of how xstate_fault() constraints are handled by the FPU register/memory copying functions in fpu/internal.h: they use "0" (0) to signal that the asm code will not always set 'err' to a valid value. But 'err' is already initialized to 0 in C code, which is duplicated by the asm() constraint. Should the initialization value ever be changed, it might become subtly inconsistent with the not too clear asm() constraint. Use 'err' as the value of the input variable instead, to clarify this all.
