But I think all Thumb-2 processors these days generate > synchronous exceptions) I don't think so from my understanding. Firstly, in order to raise an undefined instruction fault, the coprocessor has to be targetted with an instruction for it. So the faulting instruction here must always be for the VFP coprocessor. Secondly, in order to get an asynchronous exception, the VFP hardware has to be enabled. We only retry the instruction if the VFP hardware wasn't enabled. So, here's the revised patch.
