MIPS: MSA: Fix a link error on `_init_msa_upper' with older GCC
[ Upstream commit e49d3848 ] Fix a build regression from commit c9017757 ("MIPS: init upper 64b of vector registers when MSA is first used"): arch/mips/built-in.o: In function `enable_restore_fp_context': traps.c:(.text+0xbb90): undefined reference to `_init_msa_upper' traps.c:(.text+0xbb90): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_26 against `_init_msa_upper' traps.c:(.text+0xbef0): undefined reference to `_init_msa_upper' traps.c:(.text+0xbef0): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_26 against `_init_msa_upper' to !CONFIG_CPU_HAS_MSA configurations with older GCC versions, which are unable to figure out that calls to `_init_msa_upper' are indeed dead. Of the many ways to tackle this failure choose the approach we have already taken in `thread_msa_context_live'. [ralf@linux-mips.org: Drop patch segment to junk file.] Signed-off-by: Maciej W.
