[PATCH] AArch64: Add libc_feholdsetround_noex_aarch64_ctx

Subject: [PATCH] AArch64: Add libc_feholdsetround_noex_aarch64_ctx
Authentication-results: sourceware.org; auth=none

Hi,

This patch adds new function libc_feholdsetround_noex_aarch64_ctx, enabling 
further optimization. libc_feholdsetround_aarch64_ctx now only needs to 
read the FPCR in the typical case, avoiding a redundant FPSR read.
Performance results show a good improvement (5-10% on sin()) on cores with
expensive FPCR/FPSR instructions.

OK for commit?

Wilco
