Change 206264 by rwatson at rwatson_svr_ctsrd_mipsbuild on 2012/02/14 10:36:03

	On 64-bit MIPS CPUs, set 64-bit mode for the supervisor ring, not
	just the kernel and user rings.  On traditional 64-bit MIPS
	processors, this isn't an issue, as FreeBSD doesn't use the
	supervisor ring, so this becomes a no-op.  However, CHERI rejects
	attempts to clear 64-bit mode flags for rings, including SX,
	throwing an exception, as 32-bit mode is not supported for any
	ring.
