The float32_exp2 function is computing wrong exponent of 2.

For example, with the following set of values {0.1, 2.0, 2.0, -1.0},
the expected output would be {1.071773, 4.000000, 4.000000, 0.500000}.
Instead, the function is computing {1.119102, 3.382044, 3.382044, -0.191022}

Looking at the code, the float32_exp2() attempts to do this

                  2     3     4     5           n
  x        x     x     x     x     x           x
 e  = 1 + --- + --- + --- + --- + --- + ... + --- + ...
           1!    2!    3!    4!    5!          n!

But because of the typo it ends up doing

  x        x     x     x     x     x           x
 e  = 1 + --- + --- + --- + --- + --- + ... + --- + ...
           1!    2!    3!    4!    5!          n!

This is because instead of the xnp which holds the numerator, parts_muladd
is using the xp which is just 'x'.  Commit '572c4d86' refactored this
function, and mistakenly used xp instead of xnp.
