code review 179840043: cmd/dist: reenable hardware fp support on freebsd/arm

cmd/dist: reenable hardware fp support on freebsd/arm VFP support used to be so broken on freebsd/arm that it would lock up the kernel if you even tried to execute a VFP instruction. This has since been fixed and the builder I have has working floating point support so we can remove this workaround.

does FreeBSD support disabling the VFP runfast (flush-to-zero) mode yet? (Clearing VFPSCR_FZ in FPSCR) Last time I asked, the NetBSD people told me that to support denormals on VFP11 (used by Raspi), they must add VFP support code to the kernel. I'm not sure FreeBSD has that. The code LGTM, but please wait until 1.4 is out.
