I suppose you are talking about the CPU definitions
(CPU_MIPS32R6/CPU_MIPS64R6).

My comment is about the ISA definitions:

#define ISA_MIPS32        0x0000000000000020ULL
#define ISA_MIPS32R2      0x0000000000000040ULL
#define ISA_MIPS64        0x0000000000000080ULL
#define ISA_MIPS64R2      0x0000000000000100ULL
#define ISA_MIPS32R3      0x0000000000000200ULL
#define ISA_MIPS64R3      0x0000000000000400ULL
#define ISA_MIPS32R5      0x0000000000000800ULL
#define ISA_MIPS64R5      0x0000000000001000ULL
#define ISA_MIPS32R6      0x0000000000002000ULL
#define ISA_MIPS64R6      0x0000000000004000ULL
