Remove sysdeps/x86/fpu/bits/mathinline.h __finite inline.
Continuing the removals of inline functions from the x86 bits/mathinline.h, this patch removes an inline of __finite (which was not actually architecture-specific at all beyond its endianness-dependence). This inline is not normally used with GCC 4.4 or later, because isfinite now uses __builtin_isfinite except for -fsignaling-nans. Allowing __builtin_isfinite etc. to work properly even for -fsignaling-nans, by implementing versions of those built-in functions that use integer arithmetic in GCC, is <https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=66462> (a patch was committed but had to be reverted because it caused problems, and that patch didn't address all formats for all architectures, only some, so by itself would not have been sufficient to allow glibc to use __builtin_isfinite unconditionally for new-enough GCC). Tested for x86_64 and x86. * sysdeps/x86/fpu/bits/mathinline.h [__USE_MISC] (__finite): Remove inline function.
