From f96d9051c2b39544300d35f64ce92502e1e230c0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Julius Werner Date: Fri, 16 Aug 2019 15:35:39 -0700 Subject: Remove MIPS architecture The MIPS architecture port has been added 5+ years ago in order to support a Chrome OS project that ended up going nowhere. No other board has used it since and nobody is still willing or has the expertise and hardware to maintain it. We have decided that it has become too much of a mainenance burden and the chance of anyone ever reviving it seems too slim at this point. This patch eliminates all MIPS code and MIPS-specific hacks.
