x86/fpu: Print out whether we are doing lazy/eager FPU context switches

Ever since the kernel started defaulting to eager FPU switches on modern Intel
CPUs it's not been obvious whether a given system is using the lazy or the eager
FPU context switching logic.

So generate a boot message about which mode the FPU code is in:

  x86/fpu: Using 'lazy' FPU context switches.

or:

  x86/fpu: Using 'eager' FPU context switches.
