[PATCH 7/7] target/mips: Undeprecate nanoMips ISA support in QEMU


From: Stefan Pejic
Subject: [PATCH 7/7] target/mips: Undeprecate nanoMips ISA support in QEMU
Date: Wed, 4 May 2022 13:04:03 +0200

nanoMips ISA support in QEMU is actively used by MediaTek and is
planned to be maintained and potentially extended by MediaTek in
future.

Un-orphan nanoMips ISA support in QEMU by setting a mainainer from
MediaTek and remove deprecation notes from documentation as well.
