Ralf Baechle f65e4fa8e0 [MIPS] Improve branch prediction in ll/sc atomic operations. ...

Now that finally all supported versions of binutils have functioning
support for .subsection use .subsection to tweak the branch prediction

I did not modify the R10000 errata variants because it seems unclear if
this will invalidate the workaround which actually relies on the cheesy
prediction of branch likely to cause a misspredict if the sc was
successful.
