[MIPS] reduce floating point registers

[Shinpei Kato]

I'm sorry for my being late to reply.

Well, I'm still working because another problem occured. But the
situation was changed.
I took a way to use NO_REG. I mean the number of fp registers is still
32 though, I set NO_REG to the last 24 registers.
This way worked successfully. But I want to reduce the number itself.
So I'm now trying the way you mentioned. Yet still doesn't work...
Maybe other parts are wrong.
Although I might post a message soon again, I'm thinking by myself at
the moment.

Regards,
Shinpei Kato
