[ Upstream commit c2869aafe7191d366d74c55cb8a93c6d0baba317 ]

clang warns:

arch/mips/kernel/branch.c:148:8: error: variable 'bc_false' is used
uninitialized whenever switch case is taken
[-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
case mm_bc2t_op:
^~~~~~~~~~

if (bc_false)
^~~~~~~~

if (bc_false)
^~~~~~~~

here
int bc_false = 0;

2 errors generated.

When mm_bc1t_op and mm_bc2t_op are taken, the bc_false initialization
does not happen, which leads to a garbage value upon use, as illustrated
below with a small sample program.

Move the definition up so that we get the right behavior and mark it
__maybe_unused as it will not be used when CONFIG_MIPS_FP_SUPPORT
isn't enabled.
