I think that it can be -at worst -ambiguous, not so wrong: let me resay it :

"Nevertheless,the only reference to the fp operation context switch cost 
I've found is related to the VFP which we don't use ONLY with the Sitara 
under Angstrom" as we are talking about *hardfloat *and *softfloat *, vfpv3 
is not used as is ( read *soft/softfp*) . when *hard *for gcc option is 
used this implies *neon : *then your code will be VFP3 *and *SIMD codes.
Hope this is clearer.
