The MIPS Poly1305 implementation is generic MIPS code written such as to
support down to the original MIPS I and MIPS III ISA for the 32-bit and
64-bit variant respectively. Lift the current limitation then to enable
code for MIPSr1 ISA or newer processors only and have it available for
all MIPS processors.

But that's the wrong fix for that purpose. I've skimmed over that module
and there's nothing MIPS64-specific there. In fact it's plain generic
MIPS assembly, with some R2 optimisations enabled where applicable but not
necessary (and then R6 tweaks, but that's irrelevant here).
As a matter of interest I have just built it successfully for a MIPS I
DECstation configuration:
$ file arch/mips/crypto/poly1305-mips.ko
arch/mips/crypto/poly1305-mips.ko: ELF 32-bit LSB relocatable, MIPS, MIPS-I version 1 (SYSV), BuildID[sha1]=d36384d94f60ba7deff638ca8a24500120b45b56, not stripped
$
Patch included, please apply.
So while your change is surely right, what you want is this really.
