Convert MIPS to use the generic entry infrastructure from
kernel/entry/*.

v2: Use regs->regs[27] to mark whether to restore all registers in
handle_sys and enable IRQ stack.
Hi Feiyang,

Thanks for your patch, could you please expand how could this improve
the performance?
Hi, Jiaxun,

We always restore all registers in handle_sys in the v1 of the
patchset. Since regs->regs[27] is marked where we need to restore all
registers, now we simply use it as the return value of do_syscall to
determine whether we can only restore partial registers in handle_sys.
can people, who provided performance numbers for v1 do the same for v2 ?

Sure, I will test the v2 in the next few days.


Thanks and best regards!
