MIPS: Ensure Config.K0=2 applies before any memory accesses
During boot we set Config.K0=2 (uncached) such that any accesses to the
kseg0 memory region are performed uncached before the caches are
initialised. This write to the Config register introduces an execution
hazard between it & any following memory accesses (such as the load of
_gp), which we need to clear in order to ensure those memory accesses
are actually performed uncached. Clear this execution hazard with the
insertion of an ehb execution hazard barrier instruction.
