How about changing the definition of read/write_c0_ebase to

#define read_c0_ebase()         __read_ulong_c0_register($15, 1)
#define write_c0_ebase(val)     __write_ulong_c0_register($15, 1, val)

or using a new variant like

#define read_c0_ebase_ulong()         __read_ulong_c0_register($15, 1)
#define write_c0_ebase_ulong(val)     __write_ulong_c0_register($15, 1, val)

to avoid the ifdefery?  This could also make this bit

                ebase = cpu_has_mips64r6 ? read_c0_ebase_64()
                                         : (s32)read_c0_ebase();

in cpu-probe.c prettier.
