06c03cac94 [ARM] 3117/1: nwfpe kernel memory info leak
Patch from Lennert Buytenhek

The routine that nwfpe uses for converting floats/doubles to
extended precision fails to zero two bytes of kernel stack.  This
is not immediately obvious, as the floatx80 structure has 16 bits
of implicit padding (by design.)  These two bytes are copied to
userspace when an stfe is emulated, causing a possible info leak.

Make the padding explicit and zero it out in the relevant places.

54738e8275 [PATCH] ARM: 2851/1: Fix NWFPE extended precision exception handling
Patch from Richard Purdie

The exception handling code fails to compile if the extended
precision mode is enabled. This patch fixes those compile errors and
also stops _quiet functions from incorrectly raising exceptions.

f148af2593 [PATCH] ARM: 2837/2: Re: ARM: Make NWFPE preempt safe
Patch from Richard Purdie

NWFPE used global variables which meant it wasn't safe for use with
preemptive kernels. This patch removes them and communicates the
information between functions in a preempt safe manner. Generation
of some exceptions was broken and this has also been corrected.
Tests with glibc's maths test suite show no change in the results
before/after this patch.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
