Just noticed that this is a required feature in the A64 state (not available in 32bits ARM) so why not.....

Also fix signature of jl_get_zero_subnormals, i.e. removed unused parameter to match how it is used in ccall.

Should this be backported to 0.5?

Up to @tkelman.

The feature addition is a minor one without any API change and is on aarch64 only.
The function signature fix should theoretically be backported to 0.4 where it's added but in practice it shouldn't cause any problem on any platforms we support.

Doesn't look like any packages are ccall'ing into it https://github.com/search?q=jl_get_zero_subnormals&type=Code&utf8=%E2%9C%93 so I'd say implementing a feature that already works on other platforms should be fine for backporting.
