MIPS: Enable dead code elimination
Select CONFIG_HAVE_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION for MIPS, allowing the
user to enable dead code elimination. In order for this to work, ensure
that we keep the data bus exception table & the machine list by
annotating them with KEEP.
This shrinks both 32r2el_defconfig & 64r6el_defconfig builds by ~6%, as
shown by numbers from scripts/bloat-o-meter:
| 32r2el_defconfig | 64r6el_defconfig
--------|------------------|------------------
No DCE | 8919864 | 8286307
