MIPS: Indicate FP mode in sigcontext sc_used_math

Browse Source 
The sc_used_math field of struct sigcontext & its variants has
traditionally been used as a boolean value indicating only whether or
not floating point context is saved within the sigcontext. With various
supported FP modes & the ability to switch between them this information
will no longer be enough to decode the meaning of the data stored in the
sc_fpregs fields of struct sigcontext.

To make that possible 3 bits are defined within sc_used_math:

  - Bit 0 (USED_FP) represents whether FP was used, essentially
    providing the boolean flag which sc_used_math as a whole provided
    previously.

  - Bit 1 (USED_FR1) provides the value of the Status.FR bit at the time
    the FP context was saved.

  - Bit 2 (USED_HYBRID_FPRS) indicates whether the FP context was saved
    under the hybrid FPR scheme. Essentially, when set the odd singles
    are located in bits 63:32 of the preceding even indexed sc_fpregs
    element.

Any userland that tests whether the sc_used_math field is zero or
non-zero will continue to function as expected. Having said that, I
could not find any userland which uses the sc_used_math field at all.
