openrisc: Cleanup switch code and comments
The saving of the r12 register was there for a compiler bug referring to a port that was never upstreamed. It should be safe to use this as the new compiler is what we use and the old deprecated. Also, clean up some typos and references to old names in the switch comments. Signed-off-by: Stafford Horne <shorne@gmail.com>
