MIPS: xburst: simplify relocation offset calculation
The current code uses four instructions and a temporary register to calculate the relocation offset and to adjust the gp register. The relocation offset can be calculated directly from the CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE constant and from the destination address. The resulting offset can be used to adjust the gp pointer. This approach makes the code a bit simpler because it needs two instructions only.
