James Hogan 60190108f7 MIPS: Implement __multi3 for GCC7 MIPS64r6 builds
commit ebabcf17bc upstream.

GCC7 is a bit too eager to generate suboptimal __multi3 calls (128bit
multiply with 128bit result) for MIPS64r6 builds, even in code which
doesn't explicitly use 128bit types, such as the following:

unsigned long func(unsigned long a, unsigned long b)
{
	return a > (~0UL) / b;
}

Which GCC rearanges to:

return (unsigned __int128)a * (unsigned __int128)b > 0xffffffffffffffff;

Therefore implement __multi3, but only for MIPS64r6 with GCC7 as under
normal circumstances we wouldn't expect any calls to __multi3 to be
generated from kernel code.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
