Archer Yan 9d91069f48 MIPS: Fix kernel crash for R6 in jump label branch function
commit 47c25036b6 upstream.

Insert Branch instruction instead of NOP to make sure assembler don't
patch code in forbidden slot. In jump label function, it might
be possible to patch Control Transfer Instructions(CTIs) into
forbidden slot, which will generate Reserved Instruction exception
in MIPS release 6.

  - Add MIPS prefix to subject.
  - Mark for stable from v4.0, which introduced r6 support, onwards.]

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
