Can we move the CONFIG_CPU_MICROMIPS to here and just call the thing 
BRK_BUG?

Or perhaps redefining it unconditionally.  I am not sure what the 
implications of doing that would be.

That way...

...We don't need this bit.   Doing an #undef risks using different 
values for BRK_BUG depending on whether or not asm/bug.h is included.
