Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: UAPI: Ignore __arch_swab{16,32,64} when using MIPS16

Some GCC versions (e.g. 4.8.3) can incorrectly inline a function with
MIPS32 instructions into another function with MIPS16 code [1], causing
the assembler to genereate incorrect binary code or fail right away
complaining about unrecognized opcode.

In the case of __arch_swab{16,32}, when inlined by the compiler with
flags `-mips32r2 -mips16 -Os', the assembler can fail with the following
error.

    {standard input}:79: Error: unrecognized opcode `wsbh $2,$2'

For performance concerns and to workaround the issue already existing in
older compilers, just ignore these 2 functions when compiling with
mips16 enabled.

 [1] Inlining nomips16 function into mips16 function can result in
     undefined builtins, https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=55777
