Rust removed the fp feature for arm64 and tied it with Neon. However
this initially had a bug that meant it couldn't be disabled. This has
now been fixed in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/107294 so
once we can update rustc we can fix that warning by removing the
`-fp-armv8`. Until we do that we still need the `-fp-armv8` otherwise
we will get some floating point usage. This can be seen by doing an
objdump of core.o if you build after removing the `-fp-armv8`.


You can also see that fp-armv8 is enabled in the aarch64-unknown-none target
here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rust-lang/rust/master/compiler/rustc_target/src/spec/aarch64_unknown_none.rs


Thanks,
Jamie.
