[MIPS] Add basic SMARTMIPS ASE support
This patch adds trivial support for SMARTMIPS extension. This extension is currently implemented by 4KS[CD] CPUs. Basically it saves/restores ACX register, which is part of the SMARTMIPS ASE, when needed. This patch does *not* add any support for Smartmips MMU features. Futhermore this patch does not add explicit support for 4KS[CD] CPUs since they are respectively mips32 and mips32r2 compliant. So with the current processor configuration, a platform that has such CPUs needs to select both configs: CPU_HAS_SMARTMIPS SYS_HAS_CPU_MIPS32_R[12] This is due to the processor configuration which is mixing up all the architecture variants and the processor types. The drawback of this, is that we currently pass '-march=mips32' option to gcc when building a kernel instead of '-march=4ksc' for 4KSC case. This can lead to a kernel image a little bit bigger than required. Signed-off-by: Franck Bui-Huu <fbuihuu@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

1651 SmartMIPS is a extension of the MIPS32 architecture aimed at
1652 increased security at both hardware and software level for
1653 smartcards. Enabling this option will allow proper use of the
1654 SmartMIPS instructions by Linux applications. However a kernel with
1655 this option will not work on a MIPS core without SmartMIPS core. If
1656 you don't know you probably don't have SmartMIPS and should say N
1657 here.
