c5ec1983e4 [MIPS] Eleminate local symbols from the symbol table.
These symbols appear in oprofile output, stacktraces and similar but only
make the output harder to read.  Many identical symbol names such as
"both_aligned" were also being used in multiple source files making it
impossible to see which file actually was meant.  So let's get rid of them.

619b6e18fc [MIPS] R4000/R4400 daddiu erratum workaround
This complements the generic R4000/R4400 errata workaround code and adds 
bits for the daddiu problem.  In most places it just modifies handwritten 
assembly code so that the assembler is allowed to use a temporary register 
as daddiu may now be treated as a macro that expands to a sequence of li 
and daddu.  It is the AT register or, where AT is unavailable or used 
explicitly for another purpose, an explicitly-named register is selected, 
using the .set at=<reg> feature added recently to gas.  This feature is 
only used if CONFIG_CPU_DADDI_WORKAROUNDS has been set, so if the 
workaround remains disabled, the required version of binutils stays 
unchanged.

 Similarly, daddiu instructions put in branch delay slots in noreorder 
fragments are now taken out of them and the assembler is allowed to 
reorder them itself as possible (which it does making the whole idea of 
scheduling them into delay slots manually questionable).

 Also in the very few places where such a simple conversion was not 
possible, a handcoded longer sequence is implemented.

 Other than that there are changes to code responsible for building the 
TLB fault and page clear/copy handlers to avoid daddiu as appropriate.  
These are only effective if the erratum is verified to be present at the 
run time.

 Finally there is a trivial update to __delay(), because it uses daddiu in 
a branch delay slot.

f860c90bd6 [MIPS] csum_partial and copy in parallel
Implement optimized asm version of csum_partial_copy_nocheck,
csum_partial_copy_from_user and csum_and_copy_to_user which can do
calculate and copy in parallel, based on memcpy.S.

773ff78838 [MIPS] Optimize flow of csum_partial
Delete dead codes at end of the function and move small_csumcopy
there.  This makes some labels (maybe_end_cruft, small_memcpy,
end_bytes, out) needless and eliminates some branches.

0bcdda0f3a [MIPS] Unify csum_partial.S
The 32-bit version and 64-bit version are almost equal.  Unify them.  This
makes further improvements (for example, copying with parallel, supporting
PREFETCH, etc.) easier.
