[PATCH] MIPS: For micromips allow near-far-3.c test to use the jals instruction to call near_func

[Andrew Bennett]

Hi,

The near-far-3.c test is failing for micromips because it is expecting the call 
to near_func to be performed by a jal instruction, but for micromips this is done 
by a jals instruction.

I have updated the expected test output to deal with this case.  I have tested 
this on the mips-mti-elf target using mips32r2/{-mno-micromips/-mmicromips}
test options and there are no new regressions.

The patch and ChangeLog are below.

Ok to commit?



Many thanks,


Andrew
