MIPS: math-emu: CMP.Sxxx.<D|S>: Prevent occurrences of SIGILL crashes
Fix CMP.Sxxx.<D|S> SIGILL crashes by fixing main switch/case statement in fpu_emul() function so that inadvertent fall-troughs are prevented. Consider, let's say, CMP.SAF.S instruction when one of inputs is zero and another input is a signaling NaN. The desired output is zero, and the exception flag "invalid operation" set. For such case, the main portion of the implementation is within "d_fmt" case of the main "switch/case" statement in fpu_emul() function. The execution will follow one of "if-else" branches that doesn't contain "goto cop1scr;" statement, and will therefore reach the end of "d_fmt" case. It will subsequently fall through to the next case, "l_fmt". After following similar pattern, the execution will fall through to the succeeding case, which is "default". The "default" case contains "return SIGILL;" statement only. This means that the caller application will crash with "illegal instruction" message. It is obvious that above described fall-throughs are unnecessary and harmful. This patch rectifies that behavior by providing "break;" statements at the end of cases "d_fmt" and "l_fmt". There are 22 instructions affected by this problem: CMP.<SAF|SEQ|SLE|SLT|SNE|SOR|SUEQ|SULE|SULT|SUN|SUNE>.<D|S>.
