MIPS: Loongson64: Remove CPU_HAS_WB

Q: Do we have really have write buffer
A: Yes, on newer Loongson processors there is a "store fill buffer"
   that will collect *cached* writes, on all Loongson processors
   AXI crossbar will buffer all writes.

Q: Then why do we want to remove CPU_HAS_WB?
A: Because CPU_HAS_WB introduces wbflush, which intends to flush
   all write reuqests to mmio device. We won't be affected by store
   fill buffer because it won't buffer uncached writes. And a regular
   memory barrier is sufficient to flush crossbar write buffer.
