MIPS: mm: Use scratch for PGD when !CONFIG_MIPS_PGD_C0_CONTEXT
Allow usage of scratch register for current pgd even when
MIPS_PGD_C0_CONTEXT is not configured. MIPS_PGD_C0_CONTEXT is set
for 64r2 platforms to indicate availability of Xcontext for saving
cpuid, thus freeing Context to be used for saving PGD. This option
was also tied to using a scratch register for storing PGD.
This commit will allow usage of scratch register to store the current
pgd if one can be allocated for the platform, even when
MIPS_PGD_C0_CONTEXT is not set. The cpuid will be kept in the CP0
Context register in this case.
The code to store the current pgd for the TLB miss handler is now
generated in all cases. When scratch register is available, the PGD
is also stored in the scratch register.
