[PATCH v2 02/15] tools/nolibc: mips: load current function to $t9

[Thomas Weißschuh]

The MIPS calling convention requires the address of the current function
to be available in $t9.
This was not done so far.

For GCC this seems to have worked, but when compiled with clang the
executable segfault instantly.
Properly load the address of _start_c() into $t9 before calling it.
