Implement ieee754 NAN2008 emulation mode.

When this mode is enabled, kernel will accept ELF file
compiled for both NaN 2008 and NaN legacy, but if hardware
does not have capability to match ELF's NaN mode, __own_fpu
will fail for corresponding thread and fpuemu will then kick
in.

This mode trade performance for correctness, while maintaining
support for both NaN mode regardless of hardware capability.
It is useful for multilib installation that have both types
of binary exist in system.

MIPS: cpu-probe: move fpu probing/handling into its own file 2020-10-12T10:04:50+00:00 Thomas Bogendoerfer tsbogend@alpha.franken.de 2020-10-08T21:33:25+00:00 a616c0617aa36ea0bd51af90adfb87e8d3e9cb72 cpu-probe.c has grown when supporting more and more CPUs and there are use cases where probing for all the CPUs isn't useful like running on a R3k system. But still the fpu handling is nearly the same. For sharing put the fpu code into it's own file. Signed-off-by: Thomas Bogendoerfer <tsbogend@alpha.franken.de>
