From: Markos Chandras <markos.chandras@xxxxxxxxxx>

Commit 48f8eaee3f59848809644507fc47363b37e54450 upstream.

Set good default FPU flags (FR0) for O32 binaries similar to what the
kernel does for the N64/N32 ones. This also fixes a regression
introduced in commit 46490b572544 ("MIPS: kernel: elf: Improve the
overall ABI and FPU mode checks") when MIPS_O32_FP64_SUPPORT is
disabled. In that case, the mips_set_personality_fp() did not set the
FPU mode at all because it assumed that the FPU mode was already set
properly. That led to O32 userland problems.
