MIPS R6 changed the opcodes for LL/SC instructions and reduced the
offset field to 9-bits. This has some undesired effects with the "m"
constrain since it implies a 16-bit immediate. As a result of which,
add a register ("r") constrain as well to make sure the entire address
is loaded to a register before the LL/SC operations. Also use macro
to set the appropriate ISA for the asm blocks


Has support for MIPS R6 been added to GCC?

If so, that should include a proper constraint to be used with the new offset restrictions. We should probably use that, instead of forcing to a "r" constraint.

You lost the "m" constraint, but are still modifying memory. There is no "memory" clobber here, so we are no longer correctly describing what is happening.
