4d85fb9ab3 Remove unused stuff from cpu.h.
Move inappropriate stuff in cpu.h elsewhere:
{s,g}et_intr_mask -> md_var.h
num_tlbentries -> tlb.h
Remove #define clockframe trapframe and fix clock, which was the only place
this was used.
All the rest of this stuff was unused.

# we're not quite minimal yet, since we duplicate a few status register things
# here...

e17e52b7e2 Sibyte provides a 64-bit read-only counter that counts at half the processor
frequency. This counter can be accessed coherently from both cores.

Use this as the preferred timecounter for the SWARM kernels.

The CP0 COUNT register is unusable as the timecounter on SMP platforms because
the COUNT registers on different CPUs are not guaranteed to be in sync.

352e51d169 FreeBSD/mips port. The FreeBSD/mips port targets mips32, mips64,
mips32r2 and mips64r2 (and close relatives) processors.  There
presently is support for ADMtek ADM5120, A mips 4Kc in a malta board,
the RB533 routerboard (based on IDT RC32434) and some preliminary
support for sibtye/broadcom designs.  Other hardware support will be
forthcomcing.

This port boots multiuser under gxemul emulating the malta board and
also bootstraps on the hardware whose support is forthcoming...

Oleksandr Tymoshenko, Wojciech Koszek, Warner Losh, Olivier Houchard,
Randall Stewert and others that have contributed to the mips2 and/or
mips2-jnpr perforce branches.  Juniper contirbuted a generic mips port
late in the life cycle of the misp2 branch.  Warner Losh merged the
mips2 and Juniper code bases, and others list above have worked for
the past several months to get to multiuser.

In addition, the mips2 work owe a debt to the trail blazing efforts of
the original mips branch in perforce done by Juli Mallett.
