This patch fixes three gcc.c-torture/execute tests (931110-1.c,
memcpy-bi.c and pr43220.c) that were failing with -mabi=32/-mips16
on mips64-linux-gnu.  The problem was that rtl optimisation passes
were calling the move expanders with expressions taken from REG_EQUAL
notes, and on MIPS16, those expanders were introducing new uses of
the GP pseudo register.  The moves were then being inserted before
the initialisation of that pseudo register.

This GP pseudo has always been a bit of a hack.  Perhaps we should have
some generic code that targets like MIPS and ARM can call to handle
this sort of thing.  In the meantime though, MIPS really shouldn't
be introducing new uses of the pseudo once it has lost control of the
definition.  The only "safe" time is during expand.

At some point we should probably also switch MIPS over to using
insert_insn_on_edge, like ARM.

Tested on mips64-linux-gnu and applied.

gcc/
	* config/mips/mips.c (machine_function): Remove
	initialized_mips16_gp_pseudo_p.
	(mips16_gp_pseudo_reg): Use cfun->machine->mips16_gp_pseudo_rtx to
	detect whether a pseudo has already been created.  Unconditionally
	create a new one if not.
	(mips_pic_base_register): Only call mips16_gp_pseudo_reg when
	expanding to rtl.  Create a new pseudo otherwise, if allowed.
