commit 8f82f28bbaa6ca503e6296b2d26ecf213bceff88
Author: Joseph Myers <joseph@codesourcery.com>
Date:   Tue Oct 27 23:47:56 2015 +0000

    Remove MIPS16 atomics using __sync_* (bug 17404).

    MIPS16 atomics used __sync_* with GCC before 4.7, which as noted in
    bug 17404 is missing the required barrier semantics for
    atomic_exchange_rel.  This patch removes the code in question as dead
    now GCC before 4.7 is no longer supported for building glibc.

    Sanity tested with builds for MIPS.

        [BZ #17404]
        * sysdeps/mips/atomic-machine.h
        [__GNUC_PREREQ (4, 8) || (__mips16 && __GNUC_PREREQ (4, 7))]:
        Change conditional to [__GNUC_PREREQ (4, 8) || __mips16].
        [__mips16 && !__GNUC_PREREQ (4, 7)]: Remove conditional code.
