[15] RFR (L): 7175279: Don't use x87 FPU on x86-64

[Jesper Wilhelmsson]

Hi,

This is a fairly large (wide spread) change. Is there any risk for conflicts with remaining work in JDK 14?
In the interest of keeping forwardports as conflict free as possible, would it make sense to hold this change until the number of changes in 14 has dropped?

Thanks,
/Jesper
