+Subject: [PATCH 2/2] MIPS: Only set cpu_has_mmips if SYS_SUPPORTS_MICROMIPS
+
+commit 3ddc14add5e6341cf8ef4058c34c67ba7fd15317 upstream.
+
+As Jonas Gorske said in his patch:
+
+   Disable cpu_has_mmips for everything but SEAD3 and MALTA. Most of
+   these platforms are from before the micromips introduction, so they
+   are very unlikely to implement it.
+
+   Reduces an -Os compiled, uncompressed kernel image by 8KiB for
+   BCM63XX.
+
+This patch taks a different approach than his, we gate the runtime
+test for microMIPS by the config symbol SYS_SUPPORTS_MICROMIPS.
