Floating-point half-precision multiplication (FHM) is a feature present in AArch32 state for Armv8 and is represented by ISAR6.FHM identification register. This feature denotes the presence of VFMAL and VMFSL instructions and hence adding a hwcap will enable the userspace to check it before trying to use those instructions.
