Subject: next: Build errors due to 'MIPS: Add probing & defs for VZ & guest
 features'

James,

your patch 'MIPS: Add probing & defs for VZ & guest features' causes build errors
in -next when using gcc 4.7.4 / binutils 2.24. This affects almost all mips builds.

{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:3306: Warning: Tried to set unrecognized symbol: virt
{standard input}:3307: Error: Unrecognized opcode `mfgc0 $3,$16,0'

and lots of similar messages when building arch/mips/kernel/cpu-probe.o.

Build is fine with gcc 5.2.0 and binutils 2.5.

Bisect log is attached.

Guenter
