From: Paul Burton <paul.burton@imgtec.com>

commit f3575e230cf8537951ebe3cc19974c5db2ff4f1c upstream.

Commit 977e043d5ea1 ("MIPS: kernel: cps-vec: Replace mips32r2 ISA level
with mips64r2") leads to .set mips64r2 directives being present in 32
bit (ie. CONFIG_32BIT=y) kernels. This is incorrect & leads to MIPS64
instructions being emitted by the assembler when expanding
pseudo-instructions. For example the "move" instruction can legitimately
be expanded to a "daddu". This causes problems when the kernel is run on
a MIPS32 CPU, as CONFIG_32BIT kernels of course often are...

Fix this by dropping the .set <ISA> directives entirely now that Kconfig
should be ensuring that kernels including this code are built with a
suitable -march= compiler flag.
