Increase minimum MIPS kernel version to 2.6.12


I've applied this patch to increase the minimum MIPS kernel version for 
which glibc is configured to 2.6.12.  That's documented (in libc's README) 
as the minimum version for NPTL (and that's correct information about when 
MIPS NPTL support went into the Linux kernel), and as MIPS glibc 
maintainer I don't think any older kernels or non-NPTL configurations are 
now relevant to use of MIPS glibc with the Linux kernel.
