ARM: 9268/1: vfp: Add hwcap FPHP and ASIMDHP for FEAT_FP16
Floating point half-precision (FPHP) and Advanced SIMD half-precision (ASIMDHP) are VFP features (FEAT_FP16) represented by MVFR1 identification register. These capabilities can optionally exist with VFPv3 and mandatory with VFPv4. Both these new features exist for Armv8 architecture in AArch32 state. These hwcaps may be useful for the userspace to add conditional check before trying to use FEAT_FP16 feature specific instructions.
