// GetSupportedGOARM returns the ARM compatibility level of the current CPU.

// build with this level as target, a value which normally corresponds to the
// ARM architecture version number, although it is the floating point hardware
// support which is the decicive factor.
//
// Only relevant for 32-bit ARM architectures, where GOARCH=arm, which means
// ARMv7 and lower (ARMv8 is GOARCH=arm64 and GOARM is not considered).
// Highest possible value is therefore 7, while other possible values are
// 6 (for ARMv6) and 5 (for ARMv5, which is the lowest currently supported
// in go. Returns value 0 for anything else.
