It's a stack probe, making sure that there is enough stack space. Its

Hi,
I am trying to use gcc-6.3.0 to cross-compile a kernel for an old mips64
platform, an SGI Onyx2 ("IP27"), however, it looks like a large number of
functions within the compiled code are getting a common instruction emitted at
the top of the function that breaks this particular machine.
