x86/fpu: Clarify parameter names in the copy_xstate_to_*() methods

Right now there's a confusing mixture of 'offset' and 'size' parameters:

 - __copy_xstate_to_*() input parameter 'end_pos' not not really an offset,
   but the full size of the copy to be performed.

 - input parameter 'count' to copy_xstate_to_*() shadows that of
   __copy_xstate_to_*()'s 'count' parameter name - but the roles
   are different: the first one is the total number of bytes to
   be copied, while the second one is a partial copy size.

To unconfuse all this, use a consistent set of parameter names:

 - 'size' is the partial copy size within a single xstate component
 - 'size_total' is the total copy requested
 - 'offset_start' is the requested starting offset.
 - 'offset' is the offset within an xstate component.

No change in functionality.
