Ok, I'll fix order in v2 patch.

Good shot! I have missed this 'notrace'.

lib/ucmpdi2.c differ from other GCC library routines files from lib
related to my patch (ashldi3.c, ashrdi3.c, cmpdi2.c, lshrdi3.c):
only lib/ucmpdi2.c has no 'notrace' flag. In other details the files
look equivalent. The files arch/mips/lib/libgcc.h and include/linux/libgcc.h
have no fundamental differences.

to Palmer:
Can we add notrace to lib/ucmpdi2.c?
It looks like that nobody (even RISC-V code)
uses GENERIC_CMPDI2 and GENERIC_UCMPDI2. Why?
Do you use them in your local branches?
