Nobody is maintaining SMTC anymore and there also seems to be no userbase.
Which is a pity - the SMTC technology primarily developed by Kevin D.
Kissell <kevink@paralogos.com> is an ingenious demonstration for the MT
ASE's power and elegance.
Based on Markos Chandras <Markos.Chandras@imgtec.com> patch
https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/6719/ which while very similar did
no longer apply cleanly when I tried to merge it plus some additional
post-SMTC cleanup - SMTC was a feature as tricky to remove as it was to
merge once upon a time.

Since v2.6.39 there are checks for CONFIG_MSP_HAS_DUAL_USB and checks
for CONFIG_MSP_HAS_TSMAC in the code. The related Kconfig symbols have
never been added. These checks have evaluated to false for three years
now. Remove them and the code they have been hiding.

With binutils 2.24 the attempt to switch with microMIPS mode to MIPS III
mode through .set mips3 results in *lots* of warnings like
{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:397: Warning: the 64-bit MIPS architecture does not support the `smartmips' extension
during a kernel build. Fixed by using .set arch=r4000 instead.
This breaks support for building the kernel with binutils 2.13 which
was supported for 32 bit kernels only anyway and 2.14 which was a bad
vintage for MIPS anyway.

In order to avoid keeping an ever growing list of chips which need to
select a specific MIPS_L1_CACHE_SHIFT value introduce multiple internal
and non-exposed Kconfig symbols for the various MIPS_L1_CACHE_SHIFT
values out there and update the relevant Kconfig symbols to select them.

commit 3747069b25e419f6b51395f48127e9812abc3596 upstream.
The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
and are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
the arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
related content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get
rid of these warnings. In any case, they are temporary and harmless.
Here, we remove all the MIPS __cpuinit from C code and __CPUINIT
from asm files. MIPS is interesting in this respect, because there
are also uasm users hiding behind their own renamed versions of the
__cpuinit macros.

The PMC MSP71XX gpio drivers were added in v2.6.28, see commit
9fa32c6b02 ("MIPS: PMC MSP71XX gpio drivers"). They are only built if
CONFIG_HAVE_GPIO_LIB is set.
But the Kconfig symbol HAVE_GPIO_LIB was already removed in v2.6.27, see
commit 7444a72eff ("gpiolib: allow user-selection"). So these drivers
were never buildable. Perhaps no-one noticed because there are no in
tree users of msp71xx_init_gpio() and msp71xx_init_gpio_extended().
Anyhow, these drivers can safely be removed.

Now that Yosemite's gone we can move the MSP71xx code one level up.
