There are currently some pic32 MIPS drivers that are in tree, and are
only configured to be compiled on the MIPS pic32 platform. There's a
risk of breaking some of these drivers when migrating drivers away from
legacy APIs. It happened to me with a pic32 clk driver.

Let's go ahead and move the pic32.h from the asm to the platform_data
include directory in the tree. This will make it easier, and cleaner to
enable COMPILE_TEST for some of these pic32 drivers.

I included a patch at the end that shows enabling COMPILE_TEST for a
pic32 clk driver.

Merge Strategy
==============
- Patches 1-12 can go through the MIPS tree.
- Patch 13 I can repost to Claudiu after patches 1-12 are in Linus's
  tree after the next merge window. There is a separate patch set that
  fixes a compiler error I unintentionally introduced via the clk tree.

I didn't CC everyone on patch 1 to this series that copes pic32.h from
the MIPS ASM directory to linux/platform_data/pic32.h. It's available at
the following location if you want to see it:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mips/20260109-mips-pic32-header-move-v1-0-99859c55783d@redhat.com/T/#m1e0e50adfe2ea4bf430025660fada7b1468d0fbf

Patch 12 of this series is where I remove the asm variant of pic32.h.
