[PATCH 0/1] Fix Navi cards crashing with FP exception on 5.6+

[Daniel Kolesa]

This is not a real fix, but rather a workaround that should be applied to the
5.6 tree and newer. The idea here is to work around the compiler emitting FP
instructions outside the DC_FP_START/DC_FP_END blocks, which it currently does,
which causes crashes at least on ppc64le.

A proper solution would be to move all the floating point code into its own
files, then compile those with hard-float and strictly wrap all calls into
those with the DC_FP_START/DC_FP_END blocks, with the rest of the code being
compiled without floating point, but that's too extensive of a change to do,
and would not be possible in a stable tree.

The proper solution is already being discussed, it seems:
