Does the R10K family support the "wait" instruction?

Does anyone know if the R1x000 family of CPUs support the "wait" instruction?
The 'check_wait' function in arch/mips/kernel/idle.c doesn't have a case for
any of the R10K CPUs, and I can't find any specific guidance in the final R10K
manual produced by Renesas, nor in the MIPS-IV instruction set.  It appears
this was added in MIPS-II, and the R4K CPUs use it, with one version for when
interrupts are enabled, and one where they're disabled.  Since a lot of CPUs
tend to reuse R4K-compatible code, I wasn't sure.

Kinda-assuming it doesn't, since the R10K lacks any notion of reduced power
operation.
