Thanks for your elaboration.It helps a lot.
I want to submit a v3 patch like:

#if cpu_has_fpu
# error "Forcing `cpu_has_fpu' to non-zero is not supported"
#endif

but this will cause the link error if not combined with the fix:

MIPS: IP30: Remove incorrect `cpu_has_fpu' override

Maybe I should submit one first, and see how it goes then.
