Subject: [PATCH] lib/mpi: Fix 64-bit MIPS build with Clang

When building 64r6_defconfig with CONFIG_MIPS32_O32 disabled and
CONFIG_CRYPTO_RSA enabled:

lib/mpi/generic_mpih-mul1.c:37:24: error: invalid use of a cast in a

This special case for umul_ppmm for MIPS64r6 was added in
commit bbc25bee37d2b ("lib/mpi: Fix umul_ppmm() for MIPS64r6"), due to
GCC being inefficient and emitting a __multi3 intrinsic.

There is no such issue with clang; with this patch applied, I can build
this configuration without any problems and there are no link errors
like mentioned in the commit above (which I can still reproduce with
GCC 9.3.0 when that commit is reverted). Only use this definition when
GCC is being used.

This really should have been caught by commit b0c091ae04f67 ("lib/mpi:
Eliminate unused umul_ppmm definitions for MIPS") when I was messing
around in this area but I was not testing 64-bit MIPS at the time.

  * GCC ends up emitting a __multi3 intrinsic call for MIPS64r6 with the plain C
  * code below, so we special case MIPS64r6 until the compiler can do better.
