MIPS: genex: Don't reload address unnecessarily
In ejtag_debug_handler() we must reload the address of
ejtag_debug_buffer_spinlock if an sc fails, since the address in k0 will
have been clobbered by the result of the sc instruction. In the case
where we simply load a non-zero value (ie. there's contention for the
lock) the address will not be clobbered & we can simply branch back to
repeat the load from memory without reloading the address into k0.

The primary motivation for this change is that it moves the target of
the bnez instruction to an instruction within the LL/SC loop (the LL
itself), which we know contains no other memory accesses & therefore
isn't affected by Loongson3 LL/SC errata.

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.

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.
