[PATCH 0/4] CPUCFG emulation on older Loongson64 cores

[WANG Xuerui <git@xen0n.name>]

This patch series brings the CPUCFG instruction to older Loongson64
cores, enabling a unified way to query processor characteristics on
Loongson64 systems. A detailed explanation may be found in the last
commit.

One unresolved point is how to best introduce machtype-specific bits
into the generic MIPS code, namely the cpu probing and trap handler
parts. I have been struggling over whether to lift this logic into
arch/mips/kernel, but the instruction's encoding (reusing LWC2 opcode)
might be too invasive to be useful to other MIPS platforms. What do
people think is the best way forward?

WANG Xuerui (4):
  MIPS: Loongson64: fix typos in loongson_regs.h
  MIPS: Loongson64: define offsets and known revisions for some CPUCFG
    features
  MIPS: define more Loongson CP0.Config6 and CP0.Diag feature bits
  MIPS: emulate CPUCFG instruction on older Loongson64 cores
