+ * Test cases for using floating point operations inside a kernel module.
+ *
+ * This tests kernel_fpu_begin() and kernel_fpu_end() functions, especially
+ * when userland has modified the floating point control registers. The kernel
+ * state might depend on the state set by the userland thread that was active
+ * before a syscall.
+ *
+ * To facilitate the test, this module registers file
+ * /sys/kernel/debug/selftest_helpers/test_fpu, which when read causes a
+ * sequence of floating point operations. If the operations fail, either the
+ * read returns error status or the kernel crashes.
+ * If the operations succeed, the read returns "1\n".
