Current ARM soft-float implementation is violating the RTABI
(http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.ihi0043d/IHI0043D_rtabi.pd
f) Section 4.1.1.1:

When not otherwise specified by IEEE 754, the result on an invalid operation
should be the quiet NaN bit pattern with only the most significant bit of
the significand set, and all other significand bits zero. 

This patch fixes it by setting _FP_NANFRAC_* to zero.

Ran make check test with –mfloat-abi=soft. No regression.

OK to checkin?

* sysdeps/arm/soft-fp/sfp-machine.h 
  (_FP_NANFRAC_S, _FP_NANFRAC_D, _FP_NANFRAC_Q):
  Set to zero.

Thanks, Joseph.

As I don't have permission, will you please commit it?

OK for glibc.

 Joseph, thanks for your review, this is now in.

 Richard, you wrote yesterday that pushing changes to 4.8 would require 
explicit approval from release managers, however it is not clear to me who 
they are for that branch.  This fix corrects a regression introduced after 
4.8.2.  Can you approve it?  If not, then who can?

If it's not broken in 4.8.2 but broken on the branch head then it's OK for the branch.

Thanks,
Richard.
