I wonder that the C function skips several things the Assembler version
does. Is this done in the pbl now? Does this patch make the pbl
mandatory? We haven't done this on Arm, mostly because we were not
confident enough that it works on every board. That may be different on
mips, but should be mentioned in the commit log. But maybe I am
misreading the patches...
