<asm/bmips.h> covers all BMIPS CPUs across multiple platforms.

The intention was to add code needed to support BMIPS CPUs into a
central place, rather than duplicating it in the platform code for
each of the BMIPS-based systems: arch/mips/{bcm63xx,bmips,brcmstb}.

Hmm, looks like I might need to use 0x97000000UL for ZSCM_REG_BASE.

If this fixes the build should I resubmit, or do you really want the
BMIPS flush code moved into another file?
