6a800f36ac powerpc: Add SPE/EFP math emulation for E500v1/v2 processors.
This patch add the handlers of SPE/EFP exceptions.
The code is used to emulate float point arithmetic,
when MSR(SPE) is enabled and receive EFP data interrupt or EFP round interrupt.

This patch has no conflict with or dependence on FP math-emu.

The code has been tested by TestFloat.

Now the code doesn't support SPE/EFP instructions emulation
(it won't be called when receive program interrupt),
but it could be easily added.

d2b194ed82 powerpc/math-emu: Use kernel generic math-emu code
The math emulation code is centered around a set of generic macros that
provide the core of the emulation that are shared by the various
architectures and other projects (like glibc).  Each arch implements its
own sfp-machine.h to specific various arch specific details.

For historic reasons that are now lost the powerpc math-emu code had
its own version of the common headers.  This moves us to using the
kernel generic version and thus getting fixes when those are updated.

Also cleaned up exception/error reporting from the FP emulation functions.

054e51a44b [POWERPC] ppc math-emu needs -fno-builtin-fabs for math.c and fabs.c
... since they deal with internal function with that name.

5cd272085b powerpc: move math-emu over to arch/powerpc
Towards the goal of having arch/powerpc not build anything over in arch/ppc
move math-emu over.  Also, killed some references to arch/ppc/ in the
arch/powerpc Makefile which should belong in drivers/ when the particular
sub-arch's move over to arch/powerpc.
