Fengguang Wu, Oleg Nesterov and Peter Zijlstra tracked down
a kernel crash to a GCC bug: GCC miscompiles certain 'asm goto'
constructs, as outlined here:

  http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58670

Implement a workaround suggested by Jakub Jelinek.

This essentially reverts commit efb9ca08b5a2374b29938cdcab417ce4feb14b54
(kernel.org) / 58020a106879a8b372068741c81f0015c9b0b96dbv [[MIPS] Change
get_cycles to always return 0.]

Most users of get_cycles() invoke it as a timing interface.  That's why
in modern kernels it was never very much missed for.  /dev/random however
uses get_cycles() in the how the jitter in the interrupt timing contains
some useful entropy.

 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.

boot_cpu_data is used the same as current_cpu_data but returns the CPU
data for CPU 0.  This means it doesn't have to use smp_processor_id()
thus no need to disable preemption.

<title>MIPS: DECstation I/O ASIC DMA interrupt handling fix</title>

<id>5359b938c088423a28c41499f183cd10824c1816</id>
<content type='text'>
This change complements commit d0da7c002f7b2a93582187a9e3f73891a01d8ee4
and brings clear_ioasic_irq back, renaming it to clear_ioasic_dma_irq at
the same time, to make I/O ASIC DMA interrupts functional.

Unlike ordinary I/O ASIC interrupts DMA interrupts need to be deasserted
by software by writing 0 to the respective bit in I/O ASIC's System
Interrupt Register (SIR), similarly to how CP0.Cause.IP0 and CP0.Cause.IP1
bits are handled in the CPU (the difference is SIR DMA interrupt bits are
R/W0C so there's no need for an RMW cycle).  Otherwise the handler is
reentered over and over again.

The only current user is the DEC LANCE Ethernet driver and its extremely
uncommon DMA memory error handler that does not care when exactly the
interrupt is cleared.  Anticipating the use of DMA interrupts by the Zilog
SCC driver this change however exports clear_ioasic_dma_irq for device
drivers to choose the right application-specific sequence to clear the
request explicitly rather than calling it implicitly in the .irq_eoi
handler of `struct irq_chip'.  Previously these interrupts were cleared in
the .end handler of the said structure, before it was removed.
