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.

FPU codes have been separated from common part in previous patches.
This patch add the CONFIG_FPU option and some stubs, so that a no-FPU
configuration is allowed.

FPU-related logic is separated from normal signal handling path in
this patch. Kernel can easily be configured to exclude those procedures
for no-FPU systems.

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.
