nios2: fix r15 issue for gcc4
The "-ffixed-r15" option doesn't work well for gcc4. Since we don't use gp for small data with option "-G0", we can use gp as global data pointer. This allows compiler to use r15. It is necessary for gcc4 to work properly. Signed-off-by: Thomas Chou <thomas@wytron.com.tw> Signed-off-by: Scott McNutt <smcnutt@psyent.com>
