arch/mips: add experimental mips64 samples

Both toolchains were tested to successfully:
- _build_ busybox, giving respectively an n32 and an n64 binary
although it has not been run-tested.
- build linux-2.6.36-rc3 for Loongson, giving an n64 vmlinux
(which is expected, due to the way the kernel is built),
and the kernel properly boots!

Credits are due to Julien MOUTHINO (julm on freenode#uClibc) for
testing that the kernel boots on his hardware! Cheers! ;-)

     4 Attached is a patch to add __attribute__ ((noinline)) to
     5 call_gmon_start.
     6 
     7 Without this patch, the sec script that processed initfini.s removes a
     8 part of inlined call_gmon_start, causing undefined label errors.
     9 
    10 This patch solves the problem by forcing gcc not to inline
    11 call_gmon_start with __attribute__ ((noinline)).
    12 
    13 Tested by building for arm-none-lixux-gnueabi.  OK to apply?
