These patches also contain #if 0'd code; why introduce _new_ dead code?
I believe most of the #ifdefs can be safely removed.  I notice you
change one thing marked as "used by the FPE code" without conditioning
it on iWMMXt (search for 0x91).  Is that correct?

I understand you're eager to get this stuff out, but please pay
attention to what you're committing.
