I think I was unclear. Your exynos-m1 model cares about splitting fcmp[s/d]
and fccmp, but it doesn't care about splitting fccmp in to fccmps/fccmpd. It
is the split to fccmps/fccmpd that I think is unneccesary at this time.

Something like:

; fccmp    From ARMv8-A: floating point conditional compare.

Just to capture that this instruction is only available for cores implementing
ARMv8-A.
