I think your analysis is correct.  We should just delete mips_order_regs_for_local_alloc()
in mips.c and delete ADJUST_REG_ALLOC_ORDER in mips.h.
Then, 3 accumulators can be used in dspr2-MULT.c and dspr2-MULTU.c now.  Thanks!
Ex:
/* Test MIPS32 DSP REV 2 MULT instruction.  Tune for a CPU that has
   pipelined mult.  */
/* { dg-do compile } */
/* { dg-options "-mgp32 -mdspr2 -O2 -ffixed-hi -ffixed-lo -mtune=74kc" } */

/* { dg-final { scan-assembler "\tmult\t" } } */
/* { dg-final { scan-assembler "ac1" } } */
/* { dg-final { scan-assembler "ac2" } } */
/* { dg-final { scan-assembler "ac3" } } */

typedef long long a64;

NOMIPS16 a64 test (a64 *a, int *b, int *c)
{
  a[0] = (a64) b[0] * c[0];
  a[1] = (a64) b[1] * c[1];
  a[2] = (a64) b[2] * c[2];
}

Ex:
/* Test MIPS32 DSP REV 2 MULTU instruction.  Tune for a CPU that has
   pipelined multu.  */
/* { dg-do compile } */
/* { dg-options "-mgp32 -mdspr2 -O2 -ffixed-hi -ffixed-lo -mtune=74kc" } */

/* { dg-final { scan-assembler "\tmultu\t" } } */
/* { dg-final { scan-assembler "ac1" } } */
/* { dg-final { scan-assembler "ac2" } } */
/* { dg-final { scan-assembler "ac3" } } */

typedef unsigned long long a64;

NOMIPS16 a64 test (a64 *a, unsigned int *b, unsigned int *c)
{
  a[0] = (a64) b[0] * c[0];
  a[1] = (a64) b[1] * c[1];
  a[2] = (a64) b[2] * c[2];
}
