According to the document "Minimal requirements to compile the Kernel [1],
the minimal version of GCC is 5.1, -mr10k-cache-barrier=store is supported
with GCC 5.1 [2], so just remove the unnecessary check to fix the build
error [3]:

  arch/mips/sgi-ip22/Platform:28: *** gcc doesn't support needed option -mr10k-cache-barrier=store.  Stop.
