-Wa,-msoft-float is tested with as-option, which will be a problem for
clang with an upcoming change to move as-option to use KBUILD_AFLAGS
instead of KBUILD_CFLAGS due to a lack of '-mno-abicalls' in
KBUILD_AFLAGS at the point that this check occurs; $(cflags-y) is added
to KBUILD_AFLAGS towards the end of this file.
clang: error: ignoring '-fno-PIE' option as it cannot be used with implicit usage of -mabicalls and the N64 ABI [-Werror,-Woption-ignored]
This could be resolved by switching to a cc-option check but
'$(cflags-y)' would need to be added so that '-mno-abicalls' is present
for the test. However, this check is no longer necessary, as
-msoft-float is supported by all supported assembler versions (GNU as
2.25+ and LLVM 11+). Eliminate GAS_HAS_SET_HARDFLOAT and all of its
uses, inlining SET_HARDFLOAT where necessary.

Starting with version 2.24.51.20140728 MIPS binutils complain loudly
about mixing soft-float and hard-float object files, leading to this
build failure since GCC is invoked with "-msoft-float" on MIPS:
{standard input}: Warning: .gnu_attribute 4,3 requires `softfloat'
LD arch/mips/alchemy/common/built-in.o
mipsel-softfloat-linux-gnu-ld: Warning: arch/mips/alchemy/common/built-in.o
uses -msoft-float (set by arch/mips/alchemy/common/prom.o),
arch/mips/alchemy/common/sleeper.o uses -mhard-float
To fix this, we detect if GAS is new enough to support "-msoft-float" command
option, and if it does, we can let GCC pass it to GAS; but then we also need
to sprinkle the files which make use of floating point registers with the
necessary ".set hardfloat" directives.

Having received another series of whitespace patches I decided to do this
once and for all rather than dealing with this kind of patches trickling
in forever.
