MIPS: Use read-write output operand in __write_64bit_c0_split()
Commit c22c804310 ("MIPS: Fix input modify in
__write_64bit_c0_split()") modified __write_64bit_c0_split() constraints
such that we have both an input & an output which we hope to assign to
the same registers, and modify the output rather than incorrectly
clobbering an input.

The way in which we use both an output & an input parameter with the
input constrained to share the output registers is a little convoluted &
also problematic for clang, which complains if the input & output values
have different widths. For example:

We can both fix this build failure & simplify the code somewhat by
assigning the __tmp variable with the input value in C prior to our
inline assembly, and then using a single read-write output operand (ie.
a constraint beginning with +) to provide this value to our assembly.
