Remove ring0 floating point save/load functions on amd64.
ring0.Save/LoadFloatingPoint() are only usable if the caller can ensure that Go
will not clobber floating point registers before/after calling them
respectively. Due to regabig in Go 1.17, this is no longer the case; regabig
(among other things) maintains a zeroed XMM15 during ABIInternal execution,
including by zeroing it after ABI0-to-ABIInternal transitions. In
ring0.sysenter/exception, this happens in
ring0.kernelSyscall/kernelException.abi0 respectively; in
ring0.CPU.SwitchToUser, this happens after returning from
ring0.sysret/iret.abi0. Delete these functions and do floating point save/load
in assembly.
While arm64 doesn't appear to be immediately affected (so this CL permits us to
resume usage of Go 1.17), its use of Save/LoadFloatingPoint() still seems to be
incorrect for the same fundamental reason (Go code can't sanely assume what
registers the Go compiler will or won't use) and should be fixed eventually.
