-    MIPS: Sibyte: Apply M3 workaround only on affected chip types and versions.
-    
-    Previously it was unconditionally used on all Sibyte family SOCs.  The
-    M3 bug has to be handled in the TLB exception handler which is extremly
-    performance sensitive, so this modification is expected to deliver around
-    2-3% performance improvment.  This is important as required changes to the
-    M3 workaround will make it more costly.
