Subject: [MIPS] Deforest the function pointer jungle in the time code.
X-Git-Url: http://git.cdn.openwrt.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4b550488f894c899aa54dc935c8fee47bca2b7df;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

[MIPS] Deforest the function pointer jungle in the time code.

Hard to follow who is pointing what to where and why so it's simply getting
in the way of the time code renovation.
