Re: [PATCH], PowerPC IEEE 128-bit patch #7 (revised #2)

[Michael Meissner <meissner at linux dot vnet dot ibm dot com>]

David asked me to try and break patch #7 into smaller bite sized chunks. I have
broken this into roughly 16 parts. These are the same patches that I submitted
for patch #7 (revised), just broken up.  There is one additional patch in this
selection, to restrict __float128 and IBM extended double from being combined
in an expression.

I have done bootstraps with no regressions on both a little endian power8
system and a big endian power7 system.
