MIPS: Avoid using .set mips0 to restore ISA
We currently have 2 commonly used methods for switching ISA within assembly code, then restoring the original ISA. 1) Using a pair of .set push & .set pop directives. For example: .set push .set mips32r2 <some_insn> .set pop 2) Using .set mips0 to restore the ISA originally specified on the command line. For example: .set mips32r2 <some_insn> .set mips0 Unfortunately method 2 does not work with nanoMIPS toolchains, where the assembler rejects the .set mips0 directive like so: Error: cannot change ISA from nanoMIPS to mips0 In preparation for supporting nanoMIPS builds, switch all instances of method 2 in generic non-platform-specific code to use push & pop as in method 1 instead. The .set push & .set pop is arguably cleaner anyway, and if nothing else it's good to consistently use one method.
