GCC7 is a bit too eager to generate suboptimal __multi3 calls (128bit
multiply with 128bit result) for MIPS64r6 builds, even in code which
doesn't explicitly use 128bit types, such as the following:
unsigned long func(unsigned long a, unsigned long b)
{
return a > (~0UL) / b;
}
Which GCC rearanges to:
return (unsigned __int128)a * (unsigned __int128)b > 0xffffffffffffffff;
Therefore implement __multi3, but only for MIPS64r6 with GCC7 as under
normal circumstances we wouldn't expect any calls to __multi3 to be
generated from kernel code.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
