Revision 935c2dbec4d6d3163ee8e7409996904a734ad89a authored by Maciej W. Rozycki on 17 November 2014, 16:10:32 UTC, committed by Ralf Baechle on 19 November 2014, 17:22:09 UTC
Implement the microMIPS encoding of the J instruction for the purpose of
the static keys feature, fixing a crash early on in bootstrap as the
kernel is unhappy seeing the ISA bit set in jump table entries.  Make
sure the ISA bit correctly reflects the instruction encoding chosen for
the kernel, 0 for the standard MIPS and 1 for the microMIPS encoding.

Also make sure the instruction to patch is a 32-bit NOP in the microMIPS
mode as by default the 16-bit short encoding is assumed
