Subject[PATCH 5.2 090/137] MIPS: Ingenic: Disable broken BTB lookup optimization.
Date
From: Zhou Yanjie <zhouyanjie@zoho.com>

[ Upstream commit 053951dda71ecb4b554a2cdbe26f5f6f9bee9dd2 ]

In order to further reduce power consumption, the XBurst core
by default attempts to avoid branch target buffer lookups by
detecting & special casing loops. This feature will cause
BogoMIPS and lpj calculate in error. Set cp0 config7 bit 4 to
disable this feature.
