Akira Hatanaka af4211ad94 [mips] Make sure loads from lazy-binding entries do not get CSE'd or hoisted out
of loops.

Previously, two consecutive calls to function "func" would result in the
following sequence of instructions:

1. load $16, %got(func)($gp) // load address of lazy-binding stub.
2. move $25, $16
3. jalr $25                  // jump to lazy-binding stub.
4. nop
5. move $25, $16
6. jalr $25                  // jump to lazy-binding stub again.

With this patch, the second call directly jumps to func's address, bypassing
the lazy-binding resolution routine:

1. load $25, %got(func)($gp) // load address of lazy-binding stub.
2. jalr $25                  // jump to lazy-binding stub.
3. nop
4. load $25, %got(func)($gp) // load resolved address of func.
5. jalr $25                  // directly jump to func.
