    [MIPS] get_wchan(): remove uses of mfinfo[64] · b5943182
    Franck Bui-Huu authored
    This array was used to 'cache' some frame info about scheduler
    functions to speed up get_wchan(). This array was 1Ko size and
    was only used when CONFIG_KALLSYMS was set but declared for all
    configs.
    
    Rather than make the array statement conditional, this patches
    removes this array and its uses. Indeed the common case doesn't
    seem to use this array and get_wchan() is not a critical path
    anyways.
    
    It results in a smaller bss and a smaller/cleaner code:
    
       text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
