4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Maciej W. Rozycki <macro@imgtec.com>
commit 11a3799dbeb620bf0400b1fda5cc2c6bea55f20a upstream.
Fix a regression introduced with commit fb6883e5809c ("MIPS: microMIPS: Support handling of delay slots.") and defer to `__compute_return_epc' if the ISA bit is set in EPC with non-MIPS16, non-microMIPS hardware, which will then arrange for a SIGBUS due to an unaligned instruction reference. Returning EPC here is never correct as the API defines this function's result to be either a negative error code on failure or one of 0 and BRANCH_LIKELY_TAKEN on success.
