MIPS: Loongson 3: Add Loongson-3 SMP support

IPI registers of Loongson-3 include IPI_SET, IPI_CLEAR, IPI_STATUS,
IPI_EN and IPI_MAILBOX_BUF. Each bit of IPI_STATUS indicate a type of
IPI and IPI_EN indicate whether the IPI is enabled. The sender write 1
to IPI_SET bits generate IPIs in IPI_STATUS, and receiver write 1 to
bits of IPI_CLEAR to clear IPIs. IPI_MAILBOX_BUF are used to deliver
more information about IPIs.

Why we change code in arch/mips/loongson/common/setup.c?

If without this change, when SMP configured, system cannot boot since
it hang at printk() in cgroup_init_early(). The root cause is:

console_trylock()
  \-->down_trylock(&console_sem)
    \-->raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore(&sem->lock, flags)
      \-->_raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore()(SMP/UP have different versions)
        \-->__raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore()  (following is the SMP case)
          \-->do_raw_spin_unlock()
            \-->arch_spin_unlock()
              \-->nudge_writes()
                \-->mb()
                  \-->wbflush()
                    \-->__wbflush()

In previous code __wbflush() is initialized in plat_mem_setup(), but
cgroup_init_early() is called before plat_mem_setup(). Therefore, In
this patch we make changes to avoid boot failure.
