MIPS: Fix code generation for non-DSP capable CPUs

Commit 32a7ede (MIPS: dsp: Add assembler support for DSP ASEs) has
enabled the use of DSP ASE specific instructions such as rddsp and wrdsp
under the idea that all code path that will make use of these two
instructions are properly checking for cpu_has_dsp to ensure that the
particular CPU we are running on *actually* supports DSP ASE.

This commit actually causes the following oops on QEMU Malta emulating a
MIPS 24Kc without the DSP ASE implemented:

The disassembly of thread_saved_pc points to the following:

If we specifically disable -mdsp/-mdspr2 for arch/mips/kernel/process.o,
we get the following (non-crashing) assembly:

00000708 <thread_saved_pc>:
 708:   8c820208        lw      v0,520(a0)

 73c:   03e00008        jr      ra
 740:   00000000        nop

The specific line that leads a different assembly being produced is:

unsigned long thread_saved_pc(struct task_struct *tsk)
...
	return ((unsigned long *)t->reg29)[schedule_mfi.pc_offset]; <---

The problem here is that the compiler was given the right to use DSP
instructions with the -mdsp / -mdspr2 command-line switches and
performed some optimization for us and used DSP ASE instructions where
we are not checking that the running CPU actually supports DSP ASE.

This patch fixes the issue by partially reverting commit 32a7ede for
arch/mips/kernel/Makefile in order to remove the -mdsp / -mdspr2
compiler command-line switches such that we are now guaranteed that the
compiler will not optimize using DSP ASE reserved instructions. We also
need to fixup the rddsp/wrdsp and m{t,h}{hi,lo}{0,1,2,3} macros in
arch/mips/include/asm/mipsregs.h to tell the assembler that we are going
to explicitely use DSP ASE reserved instructions. The comment in
arch/mips/kernel/Makefile is also updated to reflect that.
