[PATCH] PowerPC: Set/restore rounding mode only when needed


Hi all,

This is mostly a follow up for patch 2506109403de69bd454de27835d42e6eb6ec3abc which
added context support for change/restore FPU rounding mode/exceptions. Similar to
x86_64 I noted the mentioned benchmarks (cos, exp, pow, sin, tan) have a higher 
percentage of it time being spend in the fexxx family of functions. 

This patche helps it on performance side by adding the libc_fexxx variant of inline
functions to handle both FPU round and exception set/restore and by using them on the
libc_fexxx_ctx functions. I based its implementation on already coded fexxx family functions
for PPC with fpu.

He is summary of performance improvements due this patch (measured on a POWER7 machine):

Before:

cos(): ITERS:9.5895e+07: TOTAL:5116.03Mcy, MAX:77.6cy, MIN:49.792cy, 18744 calls/Mcy
exp(): ITERS:2.827e+07: TOTAL:5187.15Mcy, MAX:494.018cy, MIN:38.422cy, 5450.01 calls/Mcy
pow(): ITERS:6.1705e+07: TOTAL:5144.26Mcy, MAX:171.95cy, MIN:29.935cy, 11994.9 calls/Mcy
sin(): ITERS:8.6898e+07: TOTAL:5117.06Mcy, MAX:83.841cy, MIN:46.582cy, 16982 calls/Mcy
tan(): ITERS:2.9473e+07: TOTAL:5115.39Mcy, MAX:191.017cy, MIN:172.352cy, 5761.63 calls/Mcy

After 2:

cos(): ITERS:2.05265e+08: TOTAL:5111.37Mcy, MAX:78.754cy, MIN:24.196cy, 40158.5 calls/Mcy
exp(): ITERS:3.341e+07: TOTAL:5170.84Mcy, MAX:476.317cy, MIN:15.574cy, 6461.23 calls/Mcy
pow(): ITERS:7.6153e+07: TOTAL:5129.1Mcy, MAX:147.5cy, MIN:30.916cy, 14847.2 calls/Mcy
sin(): ITERS:1.58816e+08: TOTAL:5115.11Mcy, MAX:1490.39cy, MIN:22.341cy, 31048.4 calls/Mcy
tan(): ITERS:3.4964e+07: TOTAL:5114.18Mcy, MAX:177.422cy, MIN:146.115cy, 6836.68 calls/Mcy

Checked on PPC32 and PPC64 with no regressions.
