Subject: Re: [PATCH v3] LoongArch: Fixup do_ri csr_era

do_ri is porting from mips, mipsr6 use do_ri to emulate some fp 
instructions, but Loongarch do not need to emulate these instructions.

And the regs->csr_era be always recovered to ths old_era = 
regs->csr_era, so the compute_return_era is useless.
