Samuel Holland 77acc6b55a riscv: add support for kernel-mode FPU
This is motivated by the amdgpu DRM driver, which needs floating-point
code to support recent hardware.  That code is not performance-critical,
so only provide a minimal non-preemptible implementation for now.

Support is limited to riscv64 because riscv32 requires runtime (libgcc)
assistance to convert between doubles and 64-bit integers.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
