generic: fix unrecognized opcode wsbh when building for MIPS16.
The issue was found and reported by hynman [1] when compiling reaver for ar71xx (Big Endian MIPS). {standard input}: Assembler messages: {standard input}:79: Error: unrecognized opcode `wsbh $2,$2' {standard input}:90: Error: unrecognized opcode `wsbh $3,$17' {standard input}:208: Error: unrecognized opcode `wsbh $2,$2' make[3]: *** [builder.o] Error 1 The patch was already in upstream since kernel release 4.3-rc5.

+Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: UAPI: Ignore __arch_swab{16,32,64} when using MIPS16
+
+Some GCC versions (e.g. 4.8.3) can incorrectly inline a function with
+MIPS32 instructions into another function with MIPS16 code [1], causing
+the assembler to genereate incorrect binary code or fail right away
+complaining about unrecognized opcode.
+
+In the case of __arch_swab{16,32}, when inlined by the compiler with
+flags `-mips32r2 -mips16 -Os', the assembler can fail with the following
+error.
+
+ {standard input}:79: Error: unrecognized opcode `wsbh $2,$2'
+
+For performance concerns and to workaround the issue already existing in
+older compilers, just ignore these 2 functions when compiling with
+mips16 enabled.
+
+ [1] Inlining nomips16 function into mips16 function can result in
+ undefined builtins, https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=55777
