CPU_QuadU isn't used on all targets, but there's no harm in defining the
typedef anyway. It only needs to be guarded by CONFIG_SOFTFLOAT, because
softfloat-native doesn't have a float128 type. This avoids the need for
every new target which uses CPU_QuadU to add itself to an #ifdef in
what ought to be target-agnostic code.

Noticed this one as a result of the s390 support patches; seems like
a minor but worthwhile cleanup to me...

I don't really know my way around FP, but from here it looks good :). 
Not sure about the arm part, but I trust Peter on that one ;).

The __arm__ part of the ifdef was a voodoo-copy from the CPU_DoubleU
typedef, where it actually does matter if you're building a softfloat-native
target on an ARM host which uses the ancient FPA floating point ABI
(as the comment says, although ARM is generally little-endian doubles
are stored in memory in big-endian order under FPA; the more modern
VFP has them little-endian). This ifdef condition was meaningless for
CPU_QuadU (because FPA didn't have a 128 bit native float type for the
type to try to be compatible with) and could never have kicked in
anyhow because we wouldn't have compiled unless CONFIG_SOFTFLOAT
was defined.

Sorry for the late comment, but I saw this rebasing my patchset on
master...

Why don't you use "#if defined(FLOAT128)" ?

I did consider that, but I felt FLOAT128 was a softfloat-internal
macro rather than part of the API softfloat provides to the rest
of qemu.

But, for instance, "#ifdef FLOATX80" is used in target-i386/cpu.h and
target-i386/op_helper.c.

Those uses seem conceptually wrong to me: either a target needs
80 bit floats, or it doesn't. It shouldn't behave differently
depending on what host it was compiled on. However this is really
just legacy of the fact that target-i386 is still compiled with
softfloat-native rather than proper softfloat.

Personally I would also delete the FLOAT128 ifdefs in target-ppc
since we always compile with softfloat now.

However I don't feel very strongly about any of this; mostly I
just wanted to get rid of the target and host specific ifdeffery.
