MIPS: math-emu: <MADDF|MSUBF>.S: Fix accuracy (32-bit case)
Implement fused multiply-add with correct accuracy.
Fused multiply-add operation has better accuracy than respective
sequential execution of multiply and add operations applied on the
same inputs. This is because accuracy errors accumulate in latter
case.
This patch implements fused multiply-add with the same accuracy
as it is implemented in hardware, using 64-bit intermediate
calculations.
One test case example (raw bits) that this patch fixes:
MADDF.S fd,fs,ft:
fd = 0x22575225
fs = ft = 0x3727c5ac
