I just bisected a crash while powering down a MIPS machine in QEMU to
this change as commit 8044511d3893 ("mips: update_mmu_cache() can
replace __update_tlb()") in linux-next. Unfortunately, I can still
reproduce it with the existing fix you have for this change on the
mailing list, which is present in next-20230614.

I can reproduce it with the GCC 13.1.0 on kernel.org [1].

  $ make -skj"$(nproc)" ARCH=mips CROSS_COMPILE=mips-linux- mrproper malta_defconfig vmlinux

  $ qemu-system-mipsel \
      -display none \
      -nodefaults \
      -cpu 24Kf \
      -machine malta \
      -kernel vmlinux \
      -initrd rootfs.cpio \
      -m 512m \
      -serial mon:stdio

  ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x0000000b ]---

The rootfs is available at [2] if it is needed. I am more than happy to
provide additional information or test patches if necessary.
