JZ4760/JZ4770/JZ4775/X1000/X1500 has an abandoned huge page tlb,
this mode is not compatible with the MIPS standard, it will cause
tlbmiss and into an infinite loop (line 21 in the tlb-funcs.S)
when starting the init process. write 0xa9000000 to cp0 register 5
sel 4 to disable this function to prevent getting stuck. Confirmed
by Ingenic, this operation will not adversely affect processors
without HPTLB function.

Now old Loongson-2E/2F use LOONGSON2EF and will be removed in future,
newer Loongson-2/3 use LOONGSON64. So rename LOONGSON1 to LOONGSON32
will make the naming style more unified.

Pull in mips-fixes primarily to gain build fixes in order to allow
better testing of mips-next.

A few MIPS fixes:

- Fix VDSO time-related function behavior for systems where we need to
  fall back to syscalls, but were instead returning bogus results.

- A fix to TLB exception handlers for Cavium Octeon systems where they
  would inadvertently clobber the $1/$at register.

- A build fix for bcm63xx configurations.

- Switch to using my @kernel.org email address.

A Golang developer reported MIPS hwcap isn't reflecting instructions
that the processor actually supported so programs can't apply optimized
code at runtime.

Thus we export the ASEs that can be used in userspace programs.

<id>7507445b1993087d2a6ef3e30e3eaeb2da40dbc8</id>

All Loongson-3 CPU family:

Code-name         Brand-name       PRId
Loongson-3A R1    Loongson-3A1000  0x6305
Loongson-3A R2    Loongson-3A2000  0x6308
Loongson-3A R2.1  Loongson-3A2000  0x630c
Loongson-3A R3    Loongson-3A3000  0x6309
Loongson-3A R3.1  Loongson-3A3000  0x630d
Loongson-3A R4    Loongson-3A4000  0xc000
Loongson-3B R1    Loongson-3B1000  0x6306
Loongson-3B R2    Loongson-3B1500  0x6307

Features of R4 revision of Loongson-3A:

  - All R2/R3 features, including SFB, V-Cache, FTLB, RIXI, DSP, etc.
  - Support variable ASID bits.
  - Support MSA and VZ extensions.
  - Support CPUCFG (CPU config) and CSR (Control and Status Register)
      extensions.
  - 64 entries of VTLB (classic TLB), 2048 entries of FTLB (8-way
      set-associative).

Now 64-bit Loongson processors has three types of PRID.IMP: 0x6300 is
the classic one so we call it PRID_IMP_LOONGSON_64C (e.g., Loongson-2E/
2F/3A1000/3B1000/3B1500/3A2000/3A3000), 0x6100 is for some processors
which has reduced capabilities so we call it PRID_IMP_LOONGSON_64R
(e.g., Loongson-2K), 0xc000 is supposed to cover all new processors in
general (e.g., Loongson-3A4000+) so we call it PRID_IMP_LOONGSON_64G.

Recently, binutils had split Loongson-3 Extensions into four ASEs:
MMI, CAM, EXT, EXT2. This patch do the samething in kernel and expose
them in cpuinfo so applications can probe supported ASEs at runtime.

In order to further reduce power consumption, the XBurst core
by default attempts to avoid branch target buffer lookups by
detecting &amp; special casing loops. This feature will cause
BogoMIPS and lpj calculate in error. Set cp0 config7 bit 4 to
disable this feature.
