[Buildroot] [git commit] toolchain-external: do not allow the user to select hard/soft float

[Thomas Petazzoni]

commit: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=f648ad2817b32ea6c89965b82c282cb812bd6646
branch: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

Commit ba92d6ef68eeb37ba435648fcfbd1dbe13212e6d made hard float the
default when Cortex-A8 and Cortex-A9. The problem it was trying to fix
is that the newer Linaro toolchains (2012.05 and 2012.06) are
hard-float, so the default selection of soft-float enabled on ARM
doesn't work for those toolchains.

Unfortunately, not selecting soft-float causes problems with
the Crosstool-NG backend at the moment.

As an intermediate solution, make the soft float option disappear when
using external toolchain: the toolchain will decide by itself whether
to generate hard float or soft float code.
