In these cases the same code was executed.

This patch should be split up.

Octeon, PowerTV, and IP32 are all different architectures. They should be in their own patches.

The two math-emu parts could probably go together.

cpu-probe seems like its own thing.

This brings us to the larger question: This is just code churn. Is it even worthwhile?
