* On SPARC, comparisons now use raw unpacking (this should not in fact
  change how the emulation behaves, just make it more efficient).
I did a sparc64 test build and it failed like so:

arch/sparc/math-emu/math_64.c: In function ‘do_mathemu’:
arch/sparc/math-emu/math_64.c:487:1: error: expected expression before ‘return’
arch/sparc/math-emu/math_64.c:488:1: error: expected expression before ‘return’
arch/sparc/math-emu/math_64.c:490:1: error: expected expression before ‘return’
arch/sparc/math-emu/math_64.c:491:1: error: expected expression before ‘return’
arch/sparc/math-emu/math_64.c:495:1: error: expected expression before ‘return’

I'm attaching a CPP processed math_64.c for your convenience:
Please try this patch on top of the previous one.  The way abort is 
redefined in the kernel code doesn't work for one place using it in an 
expression; this patch changes a comma expression to a statement 
expression.  This didn't appear in my powerpc testing because the powerpc 
emulation never uses FP_FROM_INT; I'm not sure how Kaz's sh testing 
avoided the problem appearing there.
