See how you complained that I have CMDLINE_BOOL in my changed, and you think it
shouldn't exist.
Yet here mips has it, and you just deleted it with no feature parity in your
changes for this.
In my changes I tried to maintain as much feature parity as I could with the
architectures. I did the same huge conversion a long time ago you've done here to be sure all
platforms have the features needed.
