[...] I just had a play with your for-next branch, and noticed a couple of issues arising from this: 1. Removing vfpinstr.h leads to a couple of build failures, as it is still included by arch/arm/kvm/coproc.c (for fmrx, which we should continue to provide) and arch/arm/vfp/vfpmodule.c (similarly, but also fmxr). 2. vfp.h now contains a bunch of dead function declarations (e.g. vfp_double_normaliseround) which should probably be removed. In fact, the inline functions are unused too, so they could also go. Will
