No. Only a few tests failed (The tests are mentioned in this patch).
All other tests passed no matter how I configure toolchain building.

No worry, I won't commit this patch. I will use this patch in my local.
You can fix it when you have time.
I don't know how to fix it since I am really noob about testing.

Thanks.

I see where you're coming from, but can you assemble/link any
executable with -march=..._zvfh?  Probably not?  Doesn't half of
GCC's testsuite fail then?
 
So rather than overwrite the default options we should either
add an effective-target check in target-supports.exp or in those
particular tests.  I believe the others like compress should do
the same thing.  I can do that at some point if you don't want it
but right now I'm on other things.
