Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: loongson: fix random early boot hang

Some Loongson boards (e.g. Lemote FuLoong mini-PC) use ISA/southbridge
device (CS5536 general purpose timer) for the timer interrupt. It starts
running early and is already enabled during the PCI configuration,
during which there is a small window in pci_read_base() when the register
access is temporarily disabled. If the timer interrupts at this point,
the system will hang. Fix this by adding a fixup that keeps the register
access always enabled.

The hang the patch fixes usually looks like this:
