[mips] Rotate stack checking loop


Hi,

this patch rotates the loop generated in the prologue to do stack checking 
when -fstack-check is specified, thereby saving one branch instruction.  It 
was initially implemented as a WHILE loop to match the generic implementation 
but can be turned into a DO-WHILE loop because the amount of stack to be 
checked is known at compile time (since it's the static part of the frame).

Unfortunately I don't have access to MIPS hardware any more so I only verified 
that the assembly code is as expected and can be assembled.   OK for mainline?

	* config/mips/mips.c (mips_emit_probe_stack_range): Adjust.
	(mips_output_probe_stack_range): Rotate the loop and simplify.
