This patch series introduce the initial support for lowlevel init
for the MIPS boards.

In the future low level initialization will be used
for cache initialization.

This commit introduce the initial support for
machine specific lowlevel initialization
(e.g. RAM controller or cache memory).

To return from mach_init_lowlevel() it uses
explicit mach_init_lowlevel_return label.
This saves ra register for using inside mach_init_lowlevel()

Looks mostly good except that you have some whitespace damage in your
patches. Can we drop 3/3 until we have something useful in the lowlevel
init?

Hmm. checkpatch.pl didn't find anything. Can you give any sample, please.

Just now I'm working on cache support for MIPS. I think we can get
useful in the lowlevel init in a few days :))

It not a bug, it is a feature! :))

The nop instruction is in a branch delay slot, so add a space before it.
