Subject: [PATCH 4/5] powerpc: Remove redundant clear of MSR_VSX in __giveup_vsx()

From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 16 Aug 2017 16:01:17 +1000

__giveup_fpu() already does it and we cannot have MSR_VSX set
without having MSR_FP also set.

This also adds a warning to check we indeed do
