Hi Steven,

Please see "MIPS: use generic-y where possible" already queued in -next.
cad3b624853b6f34f19693b9812df0d473a6fd40
https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/5581/

Also note, as I said in the commit message:

so I guess that may need fixing first before half of these patches can
be accepted.

Cheers
James
