Should we unify all FPU-generating switches to one place? I've added
this

        # Don't autogenerate traditional x87 instructions
        KBUILD_CFLAGS += $(call cc-option,-mno-80387)
        KBUILD_CFLAGS += $(call cc-option,-mno-fp-ret-in-387)

to the 64-bit build a while back but I don't see why it shouldn't be in
the generic part of the Makefile...

Also, 32-bit has -msoft-float which, according to the gcc manpage is
ignored but I guess should be kept for older gccs...
