Details:

Hi,

Here is some tidying of GNU Mach asm statements:

- some "volatile" are not needed because only the output result is needed
- esp register can be much more efficiently got by just using the asm("esp")
trick
- pio functions from locore.S shouldn't be used at all: macros are way
faster
- some fpe_linkage statements are just bogus (and only work by luck)

Regards,
Samuel
