 FYI, see the discussion: <https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/14505/>, 
and the original patch: <https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/14465/>.  

 My advice has been to stick `$(call cc-option,-mno-float,-msoft-float)' 
there instead, although there might be a slight controversy around it, so 
if you are happy with revisiting Guenter's change in the future, then you 
may well pick the original patch.

 Myself, I don't have resources available right now to submit a revised 
patch, sorry.
