This patch causes all my mips qemu emulations to hang during boot. This affects
all mips, mips64, mipsel, and mipsel64 emulations.

Reverting this patch fixes the problem.

Example log:

...
Failed to request irq 23 (timer)
clocksource: MIPS: mask: 0xffffffff max_cycles: 0xffffffff, max_idle_ns: 19112584971 ns
sched_clock: 32 bits at 100MHz, resolution 9ns, wraps every 21474814971ns
Console: colour dummy device 80x25
printk: console [tty0] enabled
printk: bootconsole [uart8250] disabled

[ silence ]

Bisect log attached.
