Hi,
Forcing `cpu_has_fpu' to 1 is unsupported as it breaks the `nofpu' kernel
parameter and more recently also the CONFIG_MIPS_FP_SUPPORT configuration
option. Remove the broken `cpu_has_fpu' overrides then for IP27 and IP30
systems. Please apply.
Maciej

Remove unsupported forcing of `cpu_has_fpu' to 1, which makes the `nofpu'
kernel parameter non-functional, and also causes a link error:
ld: arch/mips/kernel/traps.o: in function `trap_init':
./arch/mips/include/asm/msa.h:(.init.text+0x348): undefined reference to `handle_fpe'
ld: ./arch/mips/include/asm/msa.h:(.init.text+0x354): undefined reference to `handle_fpe'
ld: ./arch/mips/include/asm/msa.h:(.init.text+0x360): undefined reference to `handle_fpe'
where the CONFIG_MIPS_FP_SUPPORT configuration option has been chosen.

Sorry, but I have a question. From the code in
arch/mips/kernel/genex.S:567, 'handle_fpe’‘s
definition is controlled by CONFIG_MIPS_FP_SUPPORT. Then how can it
still report such
error when the CONFIG_MIPS_FP_SUPPORT configuration option has been chosen.
Stephen.

Good catch, thanks! For some reason I inverted the condition in my mind
as I wrote the change description. I have now posted v2 with the mistake
corrected.
