aarch64 softfloat target: always pass floats in int registers This is a part of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/131058: on softfloat aarch64 targets, the float registers may be unavailable. And yet, LLVM will happily use them to pass float types if the corresponding target features are enabled. That's a problem as it means enabling/disabling `neon` instructions can change the ABI. Other targets have a `soft-float` target feature that forces the use of the soft-float ABI no matter whether float registers are enabled or not; aarch64 has nothing like that. So we follow the aarch64 [softfloat ABI](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/131058#issuecomment-2385027423) and treat floats like integers for `extern "C"` functions. For the "Rust" ABI, we do the same for scalars, and then just do something reasonable for ScalarPair that avoids the pointer indirection. Cc ```@workingjubilee``` |
