Ralf,

 This patch series adds MIPS16e2 ASE support as per the architecture 
specification[1].  Included there's feature identification, reporting and 
necessary instruction emulation.  These patches have been checked with 
interAptiv MR2 hardware to verify that new MIPS16e2 functions operate 
correctly and with 74Kf hardware to verify that no regression has been 
casued with original MIPS16e support.  See individual descriptions for the 
details of each change made.

 Please queue for the next rc cycle.
