This Makefile checks that GCC is 4.9 or newer, which is redundant after
commit 76ae847497bc ("Documentation: raise minimum supported version of
GCC to 5.1"), so cc-option can be removed.
Clang does not support -march=loongson3a so it needs to continue to use
-march=mips64r2, which no longer needs cc-option because all supported
clang versions recognize this flag.
-march=loonson3a can be used unconditionally with GCC because the
minimum supported GCC version has been bumped past 4.9.0, which won't
have the bug mentioned in the comment. The _MIPS_ISA macro redefinition
can be removed at the same time for the same reason.

2.35.0
This flag is not supported by clang, which results in a warning:
clang-14: warning: argument unused during compilation: '-mno-branch-likely' [-Wunused-command-line-argument]
This breaks cc-option, which adds -Werror to make this warning fatal and
catch flags that are not supported.
Wrap this flag in cc-option so that it does not cause cc-option to fail,
which can cause randconfigs to be really noisy, due to warnings not
getting disabled that should be.
Additionally, move the cc-option check to Kconfig so that the check is
done at configuration time, rather than build time, as builds with no
configuration change will be quicker because the cc-option call will not
need to happen in those instances.

Crap can work. Given enough thrust pigs will fly, but it's not necessarily a
good idea. [ RFC1925, 2.3 ]
