Subject: [PATCH v4] mips: Do not include hi and lo in clobber list for R6

From: Romain Naour <romain.naour@...il.com>

>From [1]
"GCC 10 (PR 91233) won't silently allow registers that are not
architecturally available to be present in the clobber list anymore,
resulting in build failure for mips*r6 targets in form of:
...
.../sysdep.h:146:2: error: the register ‘lo’ cannot be clobbered in ‘asm’ for the current target
  146 |  __asm__ volatile (      \
      |  ^~~~~~~

This is because base R6 ISA doesn't define hi and lo registers w/o DSP
extension. This patch provides the alternative clobber list for r6 targets
that won't include those registers."

Since kernel 5.4 and mips support for generic vDSO [2], the kernel fail to
build for mips r6 cpus with gcc 10 for the same reason as glibc.

v4: [sudip] added macro VDSO_SYSCALL_CLOBBERS and fix checkpatch errors with commit message.
v3 Avoid duplicate code (Maciej W. Rozycki)
v2 use MIPS_ISA_REV instead of __mips_isa_rev (Alexander Lobakin)

I have reused the original patch by Romain and have retained his s-o-b
and author name as he is the original author of this patch. I have just
added the macro. Build tested with gcc-10.3.1 and gcc-9.3.0.
