I had original thought the same thing but found there was enough deviation 
leaving me to create the new file. In addition to what you point out the 
register layout is also different so I was ending up having to make use of 
some CPU specific ifdefs which made for ugly code. As well the CPU does not 
implement MIPS32 nor MIPS64 so didn't necessarily fall under mipsxx (weak 
yes). It might make sense to name the file to be more generic and cover other 
NEC MIPS CPUs. Anyways I will have another look and see if it can be done 
nicely.

Sorry, was working from another tree that had a patch pulling this config in, 
it is in fact CONFIG_CPU_R5500 as seen in mainline. I will correct this.

If I keep this as a new file I will change to _r5500_ as suggested.

I will ask Ralf if he want to have his carried over, but will carry the MIPS

Sure, will change.

I will look to get rid of the macros, you don't have to ask me twice.
