Subject: MIPS: Netlogic: Fix CP0_EBASE redefinition warnings

From: James Hogan <[email protected]>

commit 32eb6e8bee147b45e5e59230630d59541ccbb6e5 upstream.

A couple of netlogic assembly files define CP0_EBASE to $15, the same as CP0_PRID in mipsregs.h, and use it for accessing both CP0_PRId and CP0_EBase registers. However commit 609cf6f2291a ("MIPS: CPS: Early debug using an ns16550-compatible UART") added a different definition of CP0_EBASE to mipsregs.h, which included a register select of 1. This causes harmless build warnings like the following:

arch/mips/netlogic/common/reset.S:53:0: warning: "CP0_EBASE" redefined
#define CP0_EBASE $15
^
In file included from arch/mips/netlogic/common/reset.S:41:0:
./arch/mips/include/asm/mipsregs.h:63:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition #define CP0_EBASE $15, 1
^

Update the code to use the definitions from mipsregs.h for accessing both registers.
