Hi Huacai,

These two patches(6/7 and 7/7) should be merged into the tree of the 
mips architecture separately. At present, there seems to be no good way 
to merge the whole architecture patchs.

For this series of patches, some architectures have been merged, some 
need to update the patch.

Thanks and best,
Tianjia
