    [MIPS] Drop 0 definition for kern_addr_valid · d9b8d0da

    kern_addr_valid is currently only being used in kmem_ptr_validate which
    is making some vague attempt at verfying the validity of an address.
    Only IA-64, PARISC and x86-64 actually make some actual effort to verify
    the validity of the pointer.  Most architecture definitions of
    kern_addr_valid() just define it as 1; the Alpha and CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM
    on i386 and MIPS even as 0; the 0-definition will result in
    kmem_ptr_validate always failing which in turn will cause d_validate to
    always fail.  d_validate's only two users are smbfs and ncpfs, so the
    0 definition ended breaking those ...
