Atomthreads on MIPS architecture

Atomthread's port to MIPS architecture is complete. A few of the test cases are working fine. Some of them need to be fixed. Working on them. The source can be pulled from here . Its upto Kelvin now when he wants to pull in the changes. Since this is new port to a 32-bit architecture, there are some changes in the core kernel code itself. Hopefully, MIPS will get merged soon. Once I am done with validating and fixing all the test cases, I can go back to the reason I started this port -- my hypervisor. I have not been working on it for one and a half week now. Last one and a half week, I was busy with porting atomthreads to MIPS. I started this port because for testing the hypervisor, I wanted a small OS that doesn't play with MMU much. My first target is to test the instruction emulation framework for which Linux would be too heavy. Hope I will get back to hypervisor soon.
