I have totally rewritten the patch to be more along the line

What's the benefit of doing that? I don't say it's wrong, I just want
to understand. Otherwise the patch looks good, so it can probably be
applied without any change.
I seem to recall Laurent opining that doing the interpretation
of the opcode in two different places was less than clean, and
in the end I agree with him.
FWIW, this configuration would also be compatible with a
future TCG enhancement to generate fp code, whereas the first
config would not.
