At this point is it guaranteed that the thread won't migrate to another
CPU? If not, we should use get/put_cpu.

We may want to set the last_VFP_context to NULL so that after resuming
(to the same thread) we force the VFP reload from the vfpstate
structure. The vfp_support_entry code ignores the reloading if the
last_VFP_context is the same as vfpstate.
