[ARM] fix VFP+softfloat binaries

2.6.28-rc tightened up the ELF architecture checks on ARM.  For
non-EABI it only allows VFP if the hardware supports it.  However,
the kernel fails to also inspect the soft-float flag, so it
incorrectly rejects binaries using soft-VFP.

The fix is simple: also check that EF_ARM_SOFT_FLOAT isn't set
before rejecting VFP binaries on non-VFP hardware.
