One thing I just realised:

If we are using defered FP state saving and restoring in the kernel, then we
will have troubles with that when switching threads in userland, since the
handler for that is in the kernel. Of course we could set the place for it in
the KSE mailbox and let the kernel save the information when it needs it.
