Inspired by Maciej's recent patch to update DEC cpu-feature-overrides.h,
I updated IP27's as well to disable features known to not apply to the
IP27 platform or the R10K-series of CPUs.
Before:
text data bss dec hex filename
8616648 463200 472240 9552088 91c0d8 vmlinux
After:
text data bss dec hex filename
8592256 471392 472240 9535888 918190 vmlinux
I believe the increase in the size of the data section is for the same
reasons as in the DEC patch.

o Move current_cpu_type() to a separate header file
o #ifdefing on supported CPU types lets modern GCC know that certain
code in callers may be discarded ideally turning current_cpu_type() into
a function returning a constant.
o Use current_cpu_type() rather than direct access to struct cpuinfo_mips.

Most supported systems currently hardwire cpu_has_dsp to 0, so we also
can disable support for cpu_has_dsp2 resulting in a slightly smaller
kernel.
