All exceptions must be taken in microMIPS mode, never in classic
MIPS mode or the kernel falls apart. A few NOP instructions are
used to maintain the correct alignment of microMIPS versions of
the exception vectors.

Having received another series of whitespace patches I decided to do this
once and for all rather than dealing with this kind of patches trickling
in forever.

As per chapter 15 "Errata: Issue of Out-of-order in loongson"[1] to work
around the Loongson 2F erratum we need to do:

"When switching from user mode to kernel mode, you should flush the
branch target history such as BTB and RAS."

<title>MIPS: Put PGD in C0_CONTEXT for 64-bit R2 processors.</title>

Processors that support the mips64r2 ISA can in four instructions
convert a shifted PGD pointer stored in the upper bits of c0_context
into a usable pointer.  By doing this we save a memory load and
associated potential cache miss in the TLB exception handlers.

Since the upper bits of c0_context were holding the CPU number, we
move this to the upper bits of c0_xcontext which doesn't have enough
bits to hold the PGD pointer, but has plenty for the CPU number.
