[PATCH v3 1/3] Loongson-2F: Flush the branch target history such as BTB and RAS

[Wu Zhangjin <wuzhangjin@gmail.com>]

From: Wu Zhangjin <wuzhangjin@gmail.com>

As the Chapter 15: "Errata: Issue of Out-of-order in loongson"[1] shows, to
workaround the Issue of Loongson-2F，We need to do:

"When switching from user mode to kernel mode, you should flush the
branch target history such as BTB and RAS."

This patch did clear BTB(branch target buffer), forbid RAS(return
address stack) via Loongson-2F's 64bit diagnostic register.
