MIPS: fix ROM exception vectors
When booting from ROM, early exceptions can't be handled properly. Instead of busy-looping give the developer the possibilty to examine the situation. Invoke an UHI exception operation which can be read as unhandled exception by a hardware debugger if one is attached. If the debugger doesn't support UHI, the exception is read as unexpected breakpoint. Signed-off-by: Daniel Schwierzeck <daniel.schwierzeck@gmail.com>
