Nobody is maintaining SMTC anymore and there also seems to be no userbase.
Which is a pity - the SMTC technology primarily developed by Kevin D.
Kissell <kevink@paralogos.com> is an ingenious demonstration for the MT
ASE's power and elegance.
Based on Markos Chandras <Markos.Chandras@imgtec.com> patch
https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/6719/ which while very similar did
no longer apply cleanly when I tried to merge it plus some additional
post-SMTC cleanup - SMTC was a feature as tricky to remove as it was to
merge once upon a time.

RM9000 support was removed a while ago but this bit crept back in through
commit 69f24d17 [MIPS: Optimize current_cpu_type() for better code.] which
had been developed before but merged after RM9000 support was removed.

R4600_HIT_CACHEOP_WAR_IMPL is only needed on R4600 v1.6 and the R4600 has
data cache lines that are always 32 bytes so the call is pointless in
r4k_blast_dcache_page_dc64.

Move microMIPS32_to_MIPS32() to a separate file which only gets built
for mipsMIPS configurations; for other configurations the optimizer
eleminates calls to microMIPS32_to_MIPS32().

Previously math-emu was using the IEEE-754 constants internally. These
were differing by having the constants for rounding to +/- infinity
switched, so a conversion was necessary. This would be entirely
avoidable if the MIPS constants were used throughout, so get rid of
the bloat.

mm_isBranchInstr() did reside in the math emu code even though it logically
is separate and also is used outside the math emu code. In addition GCC 4.9.0
leaves the following unnnecessarily bloated function body for a non-microMIPS
configuration:
<mm_isBranchInstr>:
105c: afa50004 sw a1,4(sp)
1060: afa60008 sw a2,8(sp)
1064: afa7000c sw a3,12(sp)
1068: 03e00008 jr ra
106c: 00001021 move v0,zero
which stores arguments that are never going to be used on the stack frame.
Move mm_isBranchInstr() from cp1emu.c to branch.c, then split mm_isBranchInstr()
into a __mm_isBranchInstr() core and a mm_isBranchInstr() wrapper inline function
which only invokes __mm_isBranchInstr() on microMIPS configurations.
This shaves off 112 bytes off the kernel and improves code flow a bit.

o Only define variables in the outermost block
o One empty line at most
o Format comments as per CodingStyle
o Update FSF address in licensing term comment
o Spell FPU and MIPS in all capitals.
o Remove ####-type of lines in comments.
o Try to make things a bit most consistent between sp_*.c / dp_*.c files.

There are two version of get_rounding(), one for single precision, one
for double precision. Add a ieee754sp_ rsp. ieee754dp_ prefix for
clarity.
