Thanks for the patch! Maybe it's more obvious to folks who work on
mips, but how did you determine that say `p5600` is `mips32r5` or
`r10000` is `mips4`?

Is there a table somewhere you used as a reference? Including such
info in the commit message would help reviewers such as myself verify
the patch.

Also, in v1, you mentioned that -mtune is not a substitute. It would
be good to record that info in the commit message as well.
