Hi Alexander,

As mentioned in [1], Arm Cortex-R52 can have either single precision or double 
precision + Neon. This is reflected in GCC 8 by -mcpu=cortex-r52 defaulting to 
the latter (double precision + Neon) and -mcpu=cortex-r52+nofp.dp giving you the 
former (single precision).

Best regards,

Thomas
