This Makefile checks that GCC is 4.9 or newer, which is redundant after
commit 76ae847497bc ("Documentation: raise minimum supported version of
GCC to 5.1"), so cc-option can be removed.

Clang does not support -march=loongson3a so it needs to continue to use
-march=mips64r2, along with binutils less than 2.25, so check that both
GCC and binutils 2.25 or newer are being used before using
-march=loongson3a. These flags do not need to be checked with cc-option
anymore because all GCC versions support -march=loongson3a and
-march=mips64r2 and all clang versions support -march=mips64r2.

Thanks for the patch. I wonder why `_MIPS_ISA` only seems to be set at
all for `-march=loongson3a` AFAICT, though that question is orthogonal
to this patch. Perhaps the Loongson or MIPS maintainers know more?
Otherwise seems like most uses of _MIPS_ISA can either be deleted or
simplified now.

This is because earlier GCC mistakenly set loongson3a to MIPS64 not MIPS64R2.

But given that it's earlier than the minimal requirement GCC of kernel today, I think it should be safe to just move the whole logic.

Thanks.

So something like this (completely untested)?

Yep, tested with multiple GCC toolchains and it works :-)
