[PATCH] mips: Do not use jal to reach __libc_start_main

- Subject: [PATCH] mips: Do not use jal to reach __libc_start_main
- Authentication-results: sourceware.org; auth=none
Since __libc_start_main may not be in the same 256MB-aligned region as
the function __start, replace use of jal instruction with la/jalr.
This fixes linker issue reported in:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17601

Follow up to the issue reported in BZ#17601.
