The __pastwait symbol was only used by the address_is_in_r4k_wait_irqoff
function but this is no longer used since the SMTC removal in commit
b633648c5a ('MIPS: MT: Remove SMTC support'). That symbol also led to
build failures under certain random configuration due to the way the
compiler compiled the r4k_wait_irqoff function. If that function was
called multiple times, the __pastwait symbol was redefined breaking the
build like this:
CHK include/generated/compile.h
CC arch/mips/kernel/idle.o
{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:527: Error: symbol `__pastwait' is already defined

Defines a macro intended to allow trivial use of the regular MIPS wait
instruction from cpuidle drivers, which may simply invoke the macro
within their array of states.

local_irq_enable() may expand into very different code, so it rather should
stay in C. Also this keeps the assembler code size constant which keeps
the rollback code simple. So it's best to split r4k_wait into two parts,
one C and one assembler.
Finally add the local_irq_enable() to r4k_wait to ensure the WAIT
instruction in __r4k_wait() will work properly.
