So it does not match.
When the asm-offset stuff were consolidated the mips variant did not match the others. I do not recall if I ever tried this on a mips tool-chain and as my dev box is busted atm I cannot even test it out now.
I would be happy if we could kill the MIPS specific sed expression in the top-level Kbuild file.
Ralf - can you take a look at this and see if mips really generates different assembler syntax which warrants the different sed expression.
If mips really needs a different sed expression then we should adjust it so the output is similar to the other archs.
