This fix was committed less than 2 months after the code was forked into the
powerpc kernel. Though powerpc doesn't use quad-precision floating point,
or need it for emulation, the changes do look like correctness fixes
overall.
This was found while trying to get fsqrt emulation working on e5500, which
does have a real FPU, but lacks the fsqrt instruction. This is not the
complete fix, the rest is to be committed separately.

If fsqrts is emulated with +INF as its argument, the 0 return value causes a
NULL pointer dereference, panicking the system. Follow the PowerISA and
return +INF with no FP exception.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
shifts into the sign bit. Instead use (1U << 31) which gets the
expected result.
This fix is not ideal as it assumes a 32 bit int, but does fix the issue
for most cases.
A similar change was made in OpenBSD.

can run on processors that don't have a FPU. This is typically the
case for Book E processors. While a tuned system will probably want
to use soft-float (or use a processor that has a FPU if the usage is
FP intensive enough), allowing hard-float on FPU-less systems gives
great portability and flexibility.
