Subject: MIPS: Export MSA functions used by lose_fpu(1) for KVM

commit ca5d25642e212f73492d332d95dc90ef46a0e8dc upstream.

Export the _save_msa asm function used by the lose_fpu(1) macro to GPL
modules so that KVM can make use of it when it is built as a module.

This fixes the following build error when CONFIG_KVM=m and
CONFIG_CPU_HAS_MSA=y due to commit f798217dfd03 ("KVM: MIPS: Don't leak
FPU/DSP to guest"):

ERROR: "_save_msa" [arch/mips/kvm/kvm.ko] undefined!

Fixes: f798217dfd03 (KVM: MIPS: Don't leak FPU/DSP to guest)
