MIPS: SB1: Check optional compilation flags one by one



This fixes a regression caused by commit
bb6c0bd3 [MIPS: SB1: Fix excessive kernel
warnings.], that makes `-march=r5000' selected for compilation flags
rather than supposed `-march=sb1' with compilers that do not support the
ASE selection flags introduced with that change.

For example GCC 4.1.2 supports `-mips3d'/`-mno-mips3d' (and obviously
`-march=sb1'), however it does not support `-mdmx'/`-mno-mdmx'.  As a
result the whole selection of flags fails and compilation resorts to using
`-march=r5000', meant for really old compilers indeed only.

It is always best to pick the flags individually unless we are absolutely
sure a set of flags was introduced to the toolchain together (`-march=sb1'
and `-mtune=sb1' would be a good example), and this change makes it happen
for CONFIG_CPU_SB1.  Consequently the flags ultimately selected with GCC
4.1.2 are `-march=sb1 -Wa,--trap -mno-mips3d'
