DESCRIPTION
This module implements the load/store portion of the FPU sharing test. This
microkernel version of this test utilizes a pair of tasks, while the nanokernel
verions utilizes a task and a fiber.

The load/store test validates the nanokernel's floating point unit context
save/restore mechanism. This test utilizes a pair of threads of different
priorities that each use the floating point registers. The context
switching that occurs exercises the kernel's ability to properly preserve the
floating point registers. The test also exercises the kernel's ability to
automatically enable floating point support for a task, if supported.

FUTURE IMPROVEMENTS
On architectures where the non-integer capabilities are provided in a hierarchy,
for example on IA-32 the USE_FP and USE_SSE options are provided, this test
should be enhanced to ensure that the architectures' _Swap() routine doesn't
context switch more registers that it needs to (which would represent a
performance issue).  For example, on the IA-32, the test should issue
a fiber_fp_disable() from main(), and then indicate that only x87 FPU
registers will be utilized (fiber_fp_enable()).  The fiber should continue
to load ALL non-integer registers, but main() should validate that only the
x87 FPU registers are being saved/restored.
