8dfdd02a4c MIPS: Don't save/restore OCTEON wide multiplier state on syscalls.
The ABI allows these to be clobbered on syscalls, so only save and
restore the multiplier state when the temporary registers need to be
preserved.

2a0b24f56c MIPS: microMIPS: Add support for exception handling.
All exceptions must be taken in microMIPS mode, never in classic
MIPS mode or the kernel falls apart. A few NOP instructions are
used to maintain the correct alignment of microMIPS versions of
the exception vectors.

7034228792 MIPS: Whitespace cleanup.
Having received another series of whitespace patches I decided to do this
once and for all rather than dealing with this kind of patches trickling
in forever.

f1df323924 MIPS: Loongson-2F: Flush the branch target history in BTB and RAS
As per chapter 15 "Errata: Issue of Out-of-order in loongson"[1] to work
around the Loongson 2F erratum we need to do:

"When switching from user mode to kernel mode, you should flush the
branch target history such as BTB and RAS."

82622284dd MIPS: Put PGD in C0_CONTEXT for 64-bit R2 processors.
Processors that support the mips64r2 ISA can in four instructions
convert a shifted PGD pointer stored in the upper bits of c0_context
into a usable pointer.  By doing this we save a memory load and
associated potential cache miss in the TLB exception handlers.

Since the upper bits of c0_context were holding the CPU number, we
move this to the upper bits of c0_xcontext which doesn't have enough
bits to hold the PGD pointer, but has plenty for the CPU number.
