Same comment as before re: bare metal. Not sure on nomenclature however!

That was some hairy existing code :)

All seems sensible so:

Reviewed-by: Lorenzo Stoakes (ARM) <ljs@kernel.org>

One nit - there's still a:

function barf
// fpsimd.c acitivty log dump hack
//	ldr	w0, =0xdeadc0de
//	mov	w8, #__NR_exit
//	svc	#0
// end hack

That sticks around in the files, should those be removed also?
