MIPS: Switch FPU emulator trap to BREAK instruction.
Arguably using the address error handler has always been ugly. But with processors that handle unaligned loads and stores in hardware the current mechanism ceases to work so switch it to a BREAK instruction and allocate break code 514 to the FPU emulator. Yoichi Yuasa provided a build fix for CONFIG_BUG=n. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Signed-off-by: Yoichi Yuasa <yoichi_yuasa@tripeaks.co.jp>
