docs/probe_math_exception.c:
update example libc/sysdeps/linux/i386/bits/mathinline.h: improve __finite() macro, add __finitef macro (why they aren't always macros? why aren't they arch independent?) libm/math_private.h: much better comments on math_opt_barrier() and math_force_eval() libm/s_finite[f].c: improve out-of-line __finite[f]() too (one byte less, yay...)

- * math_opt_barrier(x): force expression x to be evaluated and put into
- * a floating point register or memory. This macro returns the value.
+ * math_opt_barrier(x): safely load x, even if it was manipulated
+ * by non-floationg point operations. This macro returns the value of x.
+ * This ensures compiler does not (ab)use its knowledge about x value
+ * and don't optimize future operations. Example:
+ * float x;
+ * SET_FLOAT_WORD(x, 0x80000001); // sets a bit pattern
+ * y = math_opt_barrier(x); // "compiler, do not cheat!"
+ * y = y * y; // compiler can't optimize, must use real multiply insn
*
- * math_force_eval(x): force expression x to be evaluated and put into
+ * math_force_eval(x): force expression x to be evaluated.
+ * Useful if otherwise compiler may eliminate the expression
+ * as unused. This macro returns no value.
+ * Example: "void fn(float f) { f = f * f; }"
+ * versus "void fn(float f) { f = f * f; math_force_eval(f); }"
+ *
+ * Currently, math_force_eval(x) stores x into
* a floating point register or memory *of the appropriate size*.
- * This forces floating point flags to be set correctly
- * (for example, when float value is overflowing, but FPU registers
- * are wide enough to "hide" this).
+ * There is no guarantee this will not change.
