[MIPS] SMTC: Interrupt mask backstop hack
To support multiple TC microthreads acting as "CPUs" within a VPE, VPE-wide interrupt mask bits must be specially manipulated during interrupt handling. To support legacy drivers and interrupt controller management code, SMTC has a "backstop" to track and if necessary restore the interrupt mask. This has some performance impact on interrupt service overhead. Disable it only if you know what you are doing. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
