On the Hifive-U platform, cpu 0 is a masked cpu with less capabilities
than the other cpus. Ignore it for the purpose of determining the
hardware capabilities of the system.

This patchset adds an option, CONFIG_FPU, to enable/disable floating-
point support within the kernel. The kernel's new behavior will be as
follows:
* with CONFIG_FPU=y
All FPU codes are reserved. If no FPU is found during booting, a
global flag will be set, and those functions will be bypassed with
condition check to that flag.
* with CONFIG_FPU=n
No floating-point instructions in kernel and all related settings
are excluded.

The RISC-V Linux port doesn't support systems that have the F extension
but don't have the D extension -- we actually don't support systems
without D either, but Alan's patch set is rectifying that soon. For now
I think we can leave this in a semi-broken state and just wait for
Alan's patch set to get merged for proper non-FPU support -- the patch
set is starting to look good, so doing something in-between doesn't seem
like it's worth the work.
I don't think it's worth fretting about support for systems with F but
not D for now: our glibc ABIs are IMAC and IMAFDC so they probably won't
end up being popular. We can always extend this in the future.

We expect that a kernel with CONFIG_FPU=y can still support no-FPU
machines. To do so, the kernel should first examine the existence of a
FPU, then do nothing if a FPU does exist; otherwise, it should
disable/bypass all FPU-related functions.
In this patch, a new global variable, has_fpu, is created and determined
when parsing the hardware capability from device tree during booting.
This variable is used in those FPU-related functions.

This patch contains code that is in some way visible to the user:
including via system calls, the VDSO, module loading and signal
handling. It also contains some generic code that is ABI visible.
