The Andes FPU coprocessor does not support denormalized number handling.
According to the specification, FPU generates a denorm input exception
that requires the kernel to deal with this instrution operation when it
encounters denormalized operands. Hence an nds32 FPU ISA emulator in the
kernel is required to meet requirement.
