The ISA exception bit selects whether exceptions are taken in classic
MIPS or microMIPS mode. This bit is Config3.ISAOnExc and is bit 16. It
It was improperly defined as bits 16 and 17. Fortunately, bit 17 is
read-only and did not effect microMIPS operation. However, detecting
a classic or microMIPS kernel when examining the /proc/cpuinfo file,
the result always showed a microMIPS kernel.

This function is supposed to be decoding the bits in config3, it 
shouldn't be changing the CPU operating mode.

Please move this to some other place (like prom_init() or 
kernel_entry_setup).
