Subject: linux-next broken for MIPS by b87077280b7271c5310237e127b0fe423d443e0f(mips:
 merge the identical "return from syscall" per-ABI code)

As shown here:

http://kisskb.ellerman.id.au/kisskb/buildresult/6442834/

Commit b87077280b7271c5310237e127b0fe423d443e0f(mips: merge the 
identical "return from syscall" per-ABI code) breaks MIPS.

I suggest that on arch/mips/kernel/entry.S:173 that you do:

s/bz/beqz/

I suspect that will fix the assembler error.  Other than that, I make no 
claims about the correctness of the code in general.
