Comment(by pbrobinson):

 Google tells me they're registers on the VFP, so not NEON related but
 VFPv3 related.

 So we should have had support for them for quite some time in gdb. I don't
 believe we should need to enable any specific options in GDB if it has the
 support for them but I can review if necessary.
