	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.

2007-12-13	[POWERPC] Fix rounding bug in emulation for double float operating	Liu Yu
	This patch fixes rounding bug in emulation for double float operating on PowerPC platform. When pack double float operand, it need to truncate the tail due to the limited precision. If the truncated part is not zero, the last bit of work bit (totally 3 bits) need to '\|' 1. This patch is completed in _FP_FRAC_SRS_2(X,N,sz) (arch/powerpc/math-emu/op-2.h). Originally the code leftwards rotates the operand to just keep the truncated part, then check whether it is zero. However, the number it rotates is not correct when N is not smaller than _FP_W_TYPE_SIZE, and it will cause the work bit '\|' 1 in the improper case. This patch fixes this issue.

2006-03-27	powerpc: move math-emu over to arch/powerpc	Kumar Gala
	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.
