[PATCH] PR libgcc/59714 complex division is surprising on aarch64


From: Vladimir Mezentsev <vladimir.mezentsev@oracle.com>

FMA (floating-point multiply-add) instructions are supported on aarch64.
These instructions can produce different result if two operations executed separately.
-ffp-contract=off doesn't allow the FMA instructions.

Tested on two platforms:
  aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu: No regression. Two failed tests now passed.
  sparc64-unknown-linux-gnu: No regression.

ChangeLog:
2017-10-18  Vladimir Mezentsev  <vladimir.mezentsev@oracle.com>
