This patch is broken. Please fix this.

You can't use a named enumeration in cpp equality.

The type ARM_FLOAT_ABI_HARD is a named enumeration and evaluates to 0
as an unknown identifier.

Therefore "#if TARGET_DEFAULT_FLOAT_ABI == ARM_FLOAT_ABI_HARD"
evaluates to "#if 0 == 0" and is always true.

Watch out that "#define ARM_FLOAT_ABI_HARD ARM_FLOAT_ABI_HARD" for
such enums is not conforming C99/C11.

I suggest you define the types as macros and then set the named enum
to those values, then use the macros in the header equality checks.

e.g.
#define VAL1 0 then enum FOO { RVAL1 = VAL1, ... }

Look at arm.h for the enum definition.

Cheers,
Carlos.
