The quoted /proc/cpuinfo reports vfpv3 and neon, so it does have an FPU (and it even has the Neon SIMD instructions, which not all SoCs of that era do).
From my perspective the softfloat-vs-hardfloat balance has tipped and I would say that "most Linux software for ARM" is now hardfloat rather than softfloat. But your view on this kind of thing depends a lot on whereabouts in the embedded world you are: if you're at the trailing edge then you'll see a lot more ARMv5 non-FPU devices.
