[v5,12/22] MIPS: Get rid of CONFIG_NO_EXCEPT_FILL

Commit Message

From: Jiaxun Yang <[e-mail]>

NO_EXCEPT_FILL is employed to signal the platform that there is no
requirement to reserve EBASE memory at the beginning of the kernel.

This holds true for all R2+ platforms, as they dynamically allocate
ebase memory. It is also applicable to any platform that doesn't load
the kernel at the start of physical memory.

Eliminate this Kconfig symbol by employing a macro to identify the
mentioned conditions.

gc: use KSEG0 only for 32 bit configuration
