In the same vein as commit 93e01942a6 ("MIPS: Hardcode cpu_has_* where
known at compile time due to ISA"), we can use our knowledge of the ISA
being targeted by the kernel build to make cpu_has_mips* macros
compile-time constant in some cases. This allows the compiler greater
opportunity to optimize out code which will never execute.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
