[PATCH 0/1] qemumips.conf: Use mips32r2 tuning definitions

[Peter Seebach]

This makes two changes, one explicit and one implicit.

Explicit: Change the included tune file.
Implicit: Change the default tune.

qemumips appears to support mips32r2 just fine, and there's not
a huge amount of interest in plain-old mips32. This matters to
me because I have a desire to use a toolchain which supports
mips32r2 but not mips32r1. (At least, in terms of prebuilt
binaries.) But it might generally improve life for people
using qemumips a lot to have it be slightly closer to typical
modern hardware, and I don't think it'll hurt anyone.

The following changes since commit 4321c553d5ae816e566234e981a0815bba046d39:

  SIGGEN_EXCLUDERECIPES_ABISAFE: add initscripts (2014-08-11 17:44:09 +0100)

[PATCH 1/1] qemumips.conf: Default to (and support) mips32r2

[Peter Seebach]

The MIPS emulation for qemumips actually supports
mips32r2:
	isa                     : mips1 mips2 mips32r1 mips32r2

We should probably use that tuning file.

This implicitly changes the default value of DEFAULTTUNE to
mips32r2.

I am OK with this.
