commit 2f2b4fd674cadd8c6b40eb629e140a14db4068fd upstream.

GCC 9.x automatically enables support for Loongson MMI instructions when
using some -march= flags, and then errors out when -msoft-float is
specified with:

  cc1: error: ‘-mloongson-mmi’ must be used with ‘-mhard-float’

The kernel shouldn't be using these MMI instructions anyway, just as it
doesn't use floating point instructions. Explicitly disable them in
order to fix the build with GCC 9.x.
