The current issue rate framework was originally written for Neoverse V1 and
Neoverse V2.  For those cores, it wasn't necessary to make a distinction
between scalar integer operations and scalar FP operations: the integer
throughput and FP throughput were close enough for the difference not to
matter.

I think the problem is that the difference between integer throughput and FP
throughput does matter for Neoverse N2.  E.g. integer additions have a
throughput of 4 a cycle whereas FP additions have a throughput of 2 a cycle.

Currently the Neoverse N2 model uses a throughput of 4 “general ops” for scalar
code.  However, when the loop consists entirely of loads, stores and FP
operations, the limit should instead be 2.
